What's the best way and cheapest to ship a track?

[irideabigpumpkin]

Need to ship a 144 to Canada, what's the cheapest way to send, and how do you package it. I was thinking of putting a ratchet strap around it, plastic wrap it, and send.

I have shipped out a track or two and all I had to do is curl it up wrap a bungie cord around it and wrap it with shipping plastic, like the saran wrap stuff and put a label on it and that was it, not exactly sure to canada but ups just requires it to be plastic wrapped, alot easier than trying to find a box for it.

Good Luck, Darren

roll it up tight and shipping wrap it, should be fine

yep, tie it up in a roll, shrink wrap it and send it!

Usually about 35 bucks for reg ground a few states away for me.

Try all the shippers, UPS FEDEX even the US mail cause they change pricing from time to time for the private shippers.

Definately send it USPS/Canada Post, it is the cheapest freight for sure and the duty is only $5.00

I'm thinking of buying a track from a snowest'er, he wants $65, is that too much to pay for shipping?

 

[priest lake rmk]

Probably $20 to much depending on the track.

Last one I shipped I rolled it up tight and used mechanics wire to wire it together than just shrink wrapped it and stuck a label on it. Shipped USPS
