    Shipping questions

    I have a Trax250 I plan on parting out, and was wondering about shipping.
    How do I ship larger parts, such as axles, plastics, etc?
    Also, who would be the best shipper for the larger stuff?
    And is there a market around here for any Trax250 parts?
    Thanks,
    "D"

    Wrap em in a trash bag and use saran wrap. Cheapest way.

    For shipping I use USPS. Cheapest.

    I regularly send crazy amounts of completely unwrapped parts through ups. It saves me loads of time and money. Many parts are perfectly suited to travel with no packaging. I've sent several sets of used fenders bare. To be honest, stuff has a better chance of being damaged if its in a box. Obviously it won't work on delicate or easily scratched parts.

    Why?

    Put a tag on it and send it.

    UPS does not require you to package parts.
