Hey guys, need a box to ship the wing measuring around 5ft by 1 1/2 ft by 1ft. Anyone have one or know where I can find one? Thanks.

 

Berk,

Try a local shipping and packaging company like Uhaul,the UPS store etc,.

I'm not sure if it would be suitable or not but a wardrobe box is about 5 feet long and at least a foot wide. Either way make sure its packed tight with bubble wrap/peanuts/foam and insured

Best of luck,
Court

 

Thanks Court....I tried going the UHAUL box route, but it seems a little tight.....

As for the bubble wrap, yes, definitely w/ the insurance, etc.....I'm going to bubble the **** out of it!!!!! HAHAHAHA......

Hey, we don't know each other but I just had a golf bag delivered through the mail and still have the box from that. You're more than welcome to it if you'd like.

 

VT - That would be great. It needs to measure at least 5 1/2 feet wide however, does it? Thanks bud.

Just checked out the box and, unfortunately, it isn't going to be big enough for your application. Sorry man~

 

I've shipped heavy 70lb amps to CA, I used the the styrofoam sheets they sell at home depot for construction. I cut it to size and lined the box walls, kind of like a cooler. Just an idea!

 

^^ JT, I like the idea, I may try that...I take it when I go to HD, they'll know what I'm talking about when requesting the styrofoam panels?

There are plenty of Boxes in the Charity Run thread. Have you looked there LOL

 

^^^ Hahahaha A$$hole!!!!! Hahahahha

 

Have you found your box? If not, I work at the Discovery Channel and we get all sorts of big stuff coming in the back. I can start checking with the loading dock fellas if you like.

best of luck

Ken, that would be great man. I need something to be safe around 6 ft by 1/2 ft by 1 ft. Thanks for the help.

 

I'll go down and check with my man, Wayne. Always gotta keep good relations with the guys that really make a place run!
