Re: [UC] Re: [Ucneighbors] shipping - uncommon thought

[Craigsolve]

Nice to see you are again, probably accidentally, posting uncommon thought  
to the Commoners' List.
 
Since the departure of you and Kyle in particular, one of the most  exciting 
posts on this list was SpecialK's suggestion the list had become  moribund, my 
agreeing with Al, and Glenn immediately asserting the list's  vibrancy was 
assured by his continual thoughtful posts.
 
Enjoy the Holiday's, Christmas - if you are not doing the Solstice on  the 
23rd.
 
Ciao,
 
Craig

Hi Muriel

USPS will not take packages over a certain size - i.e., if it won't fit in
the plexiglass box at 40th St or through the window at 30th, it's too big.
Been there, tried with a 40"x40"x3" wide box.  No go.

You could try Campus Copy, they use both UPS and Fedex Ground - Fedex Ground
being a little cheaper.  I don't know what they charge for packing, but I
have seen lots of packing materials and they do advertise that they will
package and ship for you.  Of course, there's also a small surcharge on
whichever delivery service you use.  You could ask at Campus if THEY can
send something USPS parcel post, don't know if it'd be possible there or if
it truly is an official USPS rule re: package size, but I know they can't
insure, register or delivery confirmation.
