Question on shipping speakers without boxes.


Has anyone had experience shipping speakers without their original boxes? Would you recommend it? How did you protect the delicate driver elements and grills?

Once you get some good solid replacement boxes from Uhaul, go to home depot an get some sheets of foam insulation. Cut them to fill the interstace between the speaker and the inner box wall. It will be professionally packed!
Wrap the speakers several times with Saran Wrap or another thick cling wrap to protect the drivers. This will also protect the wood. Then pack then pack them in a box with styrofoam as stated above. Don't use UPS.

The local ups store(which used to be mail boxes) is as good as the local manager. If she/he has read all the manuals and has good workers,they will make boxes-for a price. They will cradle everything in styrofoam, wrap everything against mositure,and enclose it so it will take rough treatment without the contents being damaged.
