Shipping batteries


Recommended Posts

Posted

I might be selling some batteries soon

anyone that has shipped them, how have you package them up to keep them safe

and who did you ship through? I just shipped out an amp and saw a sign at ups that said they dont ship batteries.

Are they AGM/Non-spillable? i'm pretty sure you can ship through fed-ex or USPS just pack it good with some insulation foam from lowes/homedepot.

Yeha make sure you like protect them cause they will be heavy and the shipping people will just throw ths shit out of them

That's why they don't deliver.

Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait.

You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start :D

I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

does usps offer insurance? they should i guess

im thinkin about maybe putting some mdf around it to make a kind of shell with foam on the inside with the batt, then on the outside, then in a cardboard box

and they are agm, theyre kinetiks

when i shipped a batt, i used the usps and i used pool noodles as insulation and taped it up really good. i taped the whole box with like 3 layers of clear tape and it went through with no problems..
