Uhaul has moving boxes that are sturdy 2 ply corrugated, and if you double box, with sturdy styrofoam sheets (you can get at home depot) you may be able to fabricate a package. I would NOT ship a 90 lb amp this way unless I could find 2 double ply boxes that could nest inside each oter with a minimum of 2" hi density styrofoam around it, and use a lot of sturdy packing tape to seal it all up. I may also be inclined to insert some 1/4" plywood sheets on at least 2 opposing sides to give the corners more stiffness.
shipping boxes for heavy electronics
greetings, first post here on audiogon forum. I have a heavy parasound amp that is about 90 lbs, and I do not have original shipping boxes. I took it to fedex and they said they would have boxes for the dimensions of the amp, but not for that weight, as their heaviest box can withstand 60 lbs. I have been looking on the internet that would have a rating of 80+ lbs, but I simply cannot locate one.
Can someone make a suggestion on where to acquire such heavy duty shipping box for electronics? any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. amp dimension is 19"x8"x20".
Thank you.
