Best place for shipping supplies?

Post by fowljesse »

I need to get cardboard tubing to ship the visors in. Where is the best place to get these in bulk?

Fedex, UPS etc have something called poster tube - i think you can get them in various sizes. Staples, Officemax, officedepot etc carry them too. If you want them in bulk (for cheap) you will have to look online i suppose.

If you go to some local art galleries or art stores you can probably pick them up from trash for free. Paintings and such are rolled up in tubes for shipping.....
