    Re: How To Properly Package Heavy Items!

    This, or something like it, should be a sticky.

    I can't believe how many times someone has shipped me something with only packing peanuts. Guess what happens when you do that? The item settles to the bottom of the box and gets the crap beat out of it.

    Ding Ding Ding, hence why you use cardboard spacers to keep items in place during shipment, peanuts should be used as a supplement, and not as the main material

    Never use packing penuts with the box that holds the motor tho, the can get in the gap and be a complete pain in the ass to clean out.



    and we are done

    and i dont want to hear pool noodles are to expensive

    Someone should also point out to make sure the cone won't get pushed in if it is upside down.
