I once had a 4U server sent to me. You can imagine how tall the box was after packing, etc. I received a call asking if I could go to the local UPS center because there was an issue and they did not want to deliver it. Since I was headed that way anyway I agreed. When I arrived they took me back to the box. It had tire tracks on the top of it! Keep in mind this box was at least 28² tall. I think they used it for a wheel chock on the airplane and ran over it. Either that or it made a stop by a monster truck event.
