Packing & Shipping Large/Heavy Speakers

Purchase proper foam and a roll of shrink wrap. The speakers will require 6” of foam all around and top and bottom. Heavy weight NOT the light wight garbage foam or it will crush. Purchase half inch plywood and 1” ferring stips and build a proper box exactly to the speakers size w/ the foam wrapped. You need to prevent wiggle. Find a used pallet and purchase some good straps to attach the boxes to the pallet. Your speaker size will require an extended pallet or if you want to pack them standing up you will need to also build a base for the boxes along with adding some extra support to the bottom of the pallet to bolt the boxes down and then strap and wrap them. Next you need to find a shipping co. I use FedEx freight regularly at work. If you are not shipping to a loading dock you may have issues at best they will drop off at the end of a driveway. Maybe…I usually have large items shipped to me at work where we have a forklift and loading dock to properly offload. Your best bet is to sell them local, not many folks are capable of properly packaging and shipping. Last piece of advice, if i receive something large and heavy that i just spent thousands on and it does not come packaged properly i will not accept the load and return at your cost. If it was damaged the first thing the shipper will claim is improper packaging and void any insurance. If that box can’t take a forklift jab it was bad packaging. I have had it happen multiple times. It’s cheaper in the end to have custom hard sided cases built which we also do often.  Sell local or find a company that will do the work properly. GLWS
