[Clayart] Soft pots and mailing... Rox

[Terry Lazaroff]

Hello Rox;

If you do not have practice mailing ceramic, and you have a large expensive order, take it to UPS, and have them package the items, and deliver them.  It is more expensive than the post, but you will have a guarantee that they will get there in one piece.

Ok, I need help and if I am missing some help in the archives, just let me
know.

Willing to get help anywhere.

I never mail pots.  When I did a few times, I did very poorly. Broken pots.


I make smoke fired platters about 15”.  A customer at a sale couldn’t take
any because she was traveling. So I agree to send three.  And could you
help with me know how to package the first?

What packing materials?  Spray foam?

Even double boxed I can’t imagine that as soft as my platters are (cone ten
clays fired at cone 05, who or soldate 60) they’d arrive intact.

Anyone like one service more than another? Does any of our clay
organizations, potters council or another, have a discount that makes sense
for this?

Thanks for any suggestions!

I’m open to any suggestions.  I might even give up and take them to her! I
love where she lives, Seattle.

Rox

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your
disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it
interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit as well as physically. S.
