Best way to ship a grill? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to ship a 69 grill but the size makes it really close to the limits by ups and fedex, theres only about 1" over on each deminsion to go over so finding a carton would be almost impossible, How have you done it?

You should be able to box it. I send them fedex all the time. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

I recieved a 72 inner grill via USPS priority mail.

I made a box by cutting two cardboard boxes apart and stapling as needed. Otherwise get some large pieces of cardboard and make your own. The box dimensions came out just under UPS limits.

Rob, I shipped a 67-68 chevy grill to Calif. for $40 through UPS, it was the same price to Florida also, thought I had it sold there. I just put cardboard all around it and taped the heck out of it. Good luck Randy
