Just a little helpful hint - when shipping mouldings in a tube
it might be a good idea to fasten a "splint" to the mouldings so if the
cardboard tube happens to get crunched the splint might prevent damage to the
mouldings. A splint can be anything stronger than the moulding - wood,
conduit, etc. Also make sure the ends are securely fastened and you have
good packing inside tube to prevent movement of mouldings. I work for
FedEx and almost daily see damaged tubes come down the belt. If you have
shorter mouldings to ship (4' or under) get some FedEx tubes (no
charge). These are triangular shaped and indestructible. Can't
recall ever seeing one of these damaged. BTW FedEx will accept domestic
packages (shipped within the states) up to 119" in length, 150# max.
International packages limitations are usually 108" in length and between
110# and 150#. Sometimes this varies depending on the
country.
