    Tire shipping

    How do you guys ship your tires? I usually box them up but I was wondering if you can shrink wrap them and send them as is?

    Any info would be appreciated.

    I've shipped them UPS before with no prep at all. They'll take them unwrapped, stick a shipping label and wrap tape around the tire to hold the label on and ship it just like that. Chris

    that is what i do. i wrap a 6" section with tape. put the label on and tape over the label. cheap and it works.

    Might have saved a few bucks by boxing it up.. but depends.

    I work for Purolator Courier Ltd.. we charge 10 $ extra for " Special Handling ", and often times the labels slip off the tires and they end up in " Central Unmarks.." they have WALLS stacked 20 ft tall with tires lol...

    If you ever ship a tire un-packaged.. like was said above.. Tape the label onto the tire....
    Currently :

    82 ATC - 200, plain jane, almost mint. ( Sold, 03-17-2005)
    84 ATC - 200 ES, Jimmy-Rigged, don't ask.( Sold, 03-17-2005)
    85 ATC - 250 SX, Pride and Joy, Bottom-Less Money Pit.
    84 125 M - The Mini-SX not running yet. but won't be long.
