ship things and how to not
ship things" thread... ]]
you mean like these don'ts:
1. Don't pack items with spray foam, without first putting
the item being shipped into a plastic bag.
2. Don't expect office tape (scotch tape) to hold a box
together.
3. Sticks, bark, and rocks don't make good packing material.
4. Don't try to eat those corn-starch peanuts. They really
don't taste very good.
or these do's
1. Use double walled boxes for larger/expensive items.
2. Insure expensive items.
3. Expect the package to be dropped from the roof of a building,
and pack it accordingly. The more expensive the item. the
taller the building.
