MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted November 20, 2009 I only use USPS, with delivery confirmation, no insurance, UNLESS very expensive say $100 or more, I do not use tubes, I use boxes, and roll loosely, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaderDesign 3 Posted November 20, 2009 I only use USPS as well. And I get free boxes from them as well. Free flat rate boxes. Like Speedoggy said, loose roll. Some things i'll use a tube. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr300s 1,272 Posted November 20, 2009 flat rate should really be used for real heavy stuff otherwise it doesn't pay? All of my decals are light... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajgarber70 0 Posted November 20, 2009 what i have is 6-22''x24'',2-3''x15'',2-10''x10'',1-12''x12'',5-5''x8'' stickers we have a goin postal place that ship ups,fedex,andusps they will make me a box any size so i am assuming i should ship usps and have them make a bok1'' thick by 22'x24'' or if i use a bigger box and roll them should i roll them backwards so the sticker face's out? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted November 20, 2009 not a problem, if you are going to do a lot shipping, I purchase my boxes from www.uline.com they have most any size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeffrey06 2 Posted November 20, 2009 not a problem, if you are going to do a lot shipping, I purchase my boxes from www.uline.com they have most any size. That's where I get mine also. I've found the bubble mailers to be cheaper on ebay though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SterlingSigns 0 Posted November 20, 2009 I ship a lot of decals thru USPS. I roll up the decals and put them in the triangular tube boxes. You can get them free from the USPS website. Also you can schedule a pickup on the website. It makes it very convenient for me since I make decals as a side job. I schedule the pick up then leave the boxes next to my garage when I leave for work in the morning. Every day the mailman picks them up for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
