A local Ada/Cascade resident stopped into our store last week to ship some personal items that belonged to her late sister, whom unfortunately passed unexpectedly. There were several large boxes of fragile/delicate items, and of course plenty of emotions. Most of these collectibles were packaged with care individually and then carefully placed into a freight box, where one of our LTL partners transported them down south to their new home(s).

We received a call from a local business. These over-sized bean bags were not what they thought, so they needed to return them. They were so big transporting them to our store was too difficult, so we offered to pick them up and ship. Luckily we specialize in shipping large and awkward items. So, after working up two huge boxes, these are en route to Kentucky.

A young man was referred to us through a friend, since they knew we offer packaging of delicate items. The best method to protect this prize catch was a calculated mixture of double corrugated cardboard, zip strips, wire, and packing peanuts. The customer ended up not sending it common carrier, and instead opted to have it in the car with him during the move.
