MLAS 436 shipping carton?

I have a MLAS 436 amp that 'finds' a "mains fault" and shuts down, no matter which household circuit it is connected to ... after several years of faultless operation.  Unfortunately, the nearest service locations are 900 to 1800 miles away, and I have no shipping cartons (bought them without).  Worse still, Levinson does not have any for sale.

I have found one shop that will sell me a carton, but they deem it to be in such bad shape as to be unshippable except by freight (which costs a bundle).  The prospect of building a carton from the materials I can find @ the local Home Depot is daunting at best.

Might one of you owners of this amp (1) have such a carton, (2) be willing to sell it or loan it for a fee?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi Gene,

 I sent a couple of amp UPS and had them pack them. Because they packed them, the had to stand by their work. Per my instructions , they doubled boxed them. I also got a few thousand in insurance, just in case. They made it 500 miles to get some upgrades and made it 500 miles back FedEx, but in the same boxes.

All the best.
