    im gonna try priorty flat rate with lots of bubble wrap and wrappend in a plastic bag


    are you going to tell them it's liquid?

    pretty sure if you say beer they're going to say no?



    im gonna package the best i can.. bubble wrap .. plastic bags.. maybe peanuts... and say they are fragile glass vases


    i was thinking if we said it's bottles of soda would it get shaken less?

    I would imagine since its glass you would have to say that is like sparkling cider n/a. Soda usually doesnt come in glass unless its stewarts or jones. but why not just write fragile on the box?

    NO PEANUTS! You don't want them shifting around while the UPS or USPS guys are kicking or throwing the boxes around. Pack them tight so there can be very minimal movement in the box.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    I don't think you need to say what's in it unless it's international and you fill out a customs form...

    Post Office always asks if there is anything liquid, fragile, or perishable.

    I helped a couple of people here with a few bottles of it recently. They arrived without breakage. My advice is DO NOT use USPS, it is illegal to ship alcohol through them, use fed ex or ups (I used fed ex). I packed them in a shoe box, dansko to be specific. They fit one bottle perfectly diagonally. I wrapped the bottle in bubble wrap and filled the extra space tight with bubble wrap.
    I hope this helps and some more people get to have some Faithfull Ale!

    It is illegal to use any shipping service out of and into PA for alcohol, not just USPS.
