I've got a door that I need to ship. Greyhound has been mentioned as an inexpensive means to get it from Ccincinnati. How should I box this thing? It's still has the glass in it. Door handles and locking mechanisms have been removed.
Would it be enough if I taped a couple of layers of corugated cardboard to the outside? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Rick |

pulling the vent glass and asso pieces can be a pain. with it removed you could get away with 24x48x8 inside demensions, bummer, over the 112". assem it goes to 38x48x8. over size applies to both. if you go to fedex's site,others too i'm sure, you can determine rates with 2 zipcodes. check the diff before you tear it apart. do not go to a mail boxes etc. type store. they really tack on a big surcharge.
