The perfect size double box

When I can't find the correct size box, I buy the closest size to what I need and then cut and fold until I have created the size box I need.

I have found that FedEx stores have real nice assortment of boxes for shipping. I’ve used them for shipping audio components. I’ve tried Lowe’s and Home Depot but their sizes aren’t right for most low profile electronics. 

Walmart. eBay the boxery. Since you are in northern NJ come stop by our listening room for a while good to meet people and have fun.  Also staples

+1 lak.

If you opt to box yourself, double box.

Oversize; wrap the Belles in a plastic bag, wrapped with a shipping blanket (U-Haul, cheap)

Foam peanuts liberally bottom, sides, and top; be kind to the receiver and put them into grocery bags to eliminate the ’peanut storm’ at the receivers’ end. Stuff it tight.

Repeat with 2nd larger box, add some scrap cardboard to minimize movement of the interior box within the exterior box. More bags of peanuts.....

Use fibered shipping tape to seal both boxes, and be into ’bondage’. Seal like it will try to escape from the boxes. If it jiggles, fill more...

Insure it for what it’s worth + 50%....cheap in the long run.

I don’t ship much, but don’t care to get into ’discussions’ over bad packaging....

Oh, and take pics of your handiwork.....cheapest insurance of all... ;)

Good luck, J

PS:  Mark 'This Side UP' all 4 sides, and mark 'TOP: DO NOT STACK!'

'GLASS: DO NOT DROP!'

(Paranoia isn't a bad thing, overall...)
