Packaging help
« on: April 25, 2017, 10:12:07 AM »

Anybody know where to buy boxes to send 2 bats separately? Only want 2 maybe 3 if I choose to send one of mine off for refurb

Any other ideas to pack them up for postage? Dont want to just bubble wrap them

If I run out of boxes sent to me (used to have dozens for some reason!!  :o ) then I purchased from ebay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/9518045877?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

At £1.70 each they are ok. And they fit 1 bat with packaging to pad it out, 2 bats comfortably and even 3 bats at a squeeze.
Good strong boxes they measure 94x16x16cm. So for a true single size box it would have to be 91x15x9cm. But haven't looked at where to get this size!
