SIMON CRAGG Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I have been asked if I could post a Middle Phase glider from Dorset to Yorkshire. The model is built, so the longest part is the wing. Can anybody advise on the best way to go about this please?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Fry Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Build a wooden crate, with custom foam and strapping, strong enough to walk on, and drop off a van, and quote to buyer fair actual costs to do the packaging, inc reasonable labour costs. There after if accepted, if you can build the model, the box isn’t a problem. The recipient at least doesn’t get hanger rash thereafter. But I bet it costs more than the glider.

Denis Watkins Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 At 5 - 6 foot, by 1 foot square, boxes are expensive, around £20 Simon, but you can make one from boxes with strip wood framing. Carriers need a phone call and deliver 5 - 6 foot packages £10 - £15. This is why most sellers advertise large items to collect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
