Absyrtus Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Will padded envelopes do for pillars, if the envelope is wrapped back around the candle?I'm tring to avoid ordering a huge number of boxes, and finding a place to put them... I won't be shipping many, but a few, and I was curious what you guys did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breanna Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I would NOT do that,,,it will get all messed up,,I use the USPS priority boxes for USPS and they are free...you need to wrap the pillar in bubble wrap and put peanuts in the box to keep from getting crushed,,been doing this with ebay for 4 years,,,Trust me, if you send it the other way it will NOT get there in one peice;) ,,,HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Mailing them in envelopes (no matter how padded they are) is risky as they could get damaged during transit. Check out the USPS priority mail boxes that Brenna mentioned at www.usps.com - they come in different shapes and sizes and you should be able to find something to suit you. They also have flat rate ones which cost $7.70 to mail which can be a good deal if you have a lot of heavy stuff (their weight limit is 70 lbs which you won't ever reach if you are sending candles) going cross country.
