How to pack your tools.

Safety for you, postal workers and our staff is our top priority.

 
Stack of cardboard boxes

Wrap your blades.

  • Sandwich your blade between two layers of corrugated cardboard.

  • Using strong packing tape, securely tape the cardboard around the blade making sure the “sleeve” can’t slip off during transit.

Pack it.

  • Place your tools inside your shipping box.

  • Use USPS website https://www.usps.com/ to purchase and print shipping labels. One for sending and one for return shipping. Place the return shipping label in the box.

  • Generously fill the empty space with padding (like bubble wrap, balled up paper, etc).

  • Write “FRAGILE” on the box.

  • Securely tape the box closed.

Be sure to include your phone # and email address somewhere in the package.

When I receive your package I will assess and inventory the work, then contact you if there are problems that are outside the regular scope of pricing before proceeding. I will then prepare and send a SQUARE invoice via email. You can pay this directly with your credit or debit card with the link in the email invoice.
