In my case lady worked at a warehouse and had her people palate and strap the 3 ttys! saved $$ Pack mail is great though to pack stuff if no other free reliable option is there. We have to ship a large group of computer front panels across country and they handled it really well. Pack Mail ships alot of stuff form many auction places too.

Since they routinely load pallets, they didn't mind receiving one. Cost me all of $5 for a warehouse fee--and they even helped load it into my truck. When I got it home, that's where the neighbor and six-pack came in handy. --Chuck
