Shipping Supplies
I was thinking about selling some frags, but demand is low locally, so I'm considering shipping. Can any one recommend a site that sells shipping supplies? For example, heat packs, plastic containment bags, styrofoam boxes etc?

You can get most of what you need at http://www.aquabid.com/
Your LFS should have some extra boxes you can get.

Hmmm, that site doesn't really have the best selection. I wan't to sell some live rock and I think I will need styro liners larger than the ones on that site 6" x 7" x 7".
Are there any other sites you guys use? |

I don't know the prices yet, but I just sent them and email for a quote on all the boxes I need.

Actually, I was reading an article about shipping ( http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2005/11/tips/view ) and I think I'll do what the author recommended and just grab a big sheet of foam insulation and cut it to spec.
Anyone know of any other good articles on shipping? I've never shipped anything before and the search function seems to be down again. |
