[QUOTE="TUT, post: 878444, member: 29298"] In the sense that shippers (at least commercial shippers) should know that the carriers rate packaging on how far a package should be able to fall/thrown without being damaged. It should handle X amount, it's pretty liberal to. I cannot recall the exact specifics that the labs give at this time, someone here may. Since I am aware of the industry, I always tell home-shippers pack whatever you ship extra extra good and then a little more. The carriers have a rule for this, your packaging hasn't been approved and just because you insure something doesn't mean you'll get the money back. In fact assume insurance is only for your package being lost by the carrier. Home shippers are very naive to the nuances. You have to prepare because what you see in these videos can happen, so you need to assume with your luck it will. [/QUOTE]
