| Packaging and
Shipping Tips |
| The Trayman prefers U.S. Priority Mail.
Insured when appropriate. UPS is a real pain. They will not leave behind
(unless you work out a deal with your regular delivery person), they don't
deliver to post office boxes, they don't provide free boxes, they don't deliver
on Saturdays, and you can't mail them on Saturdays (excpet at a Mail Boxes Etc.
and then it does not actually ship until Monday) . Federal Express and Emory
are too expensive. |

| Packing for shipment should include
bubble wrap around the tray. Newspaper or peanunts packed on the bottom and
top. Always error on too much packing rather than too little. |
| |
| The two best Priority Mail boxes for
trays are the __ and the __. The smaller one is great for 12" trays. The larger
one fits most pies pretty well and sometimes a 13" SS Dish. If you are shipping
more than one tray, wrap them in newspaper (a couple of sheets thick), stack
them the best you can by size and then wrap them with bubble wrap. Newspaper or
peanuts around the bundle and tape the box well and they should arrive in
excellent condition. |
