Re: shipping containers
>>They are probably more expensive than the disposable
styro coolers you can get at Wal-Mart, but much
thicker as well (and wouldn't need another box around
them for shipping).<<
I have shipped using the Wal-mart coolers without a
box, without problems. Trust me, you can't beat
Wal-Mart. For the price of shipping only for the
"good" coolers, you can get the Wal-Mart coolers. And
if you are worried about the insulation being too
thin, then put in a 75 cent freeze pack.
I received some plants from Gary (thank you) in a very
nice cooler. They were HOT to the touch when I opened
the cooler. Styrofoam by itself in extreme weather
won't cut it. You need a heat sink. Hence the freeze
pack.
As long as I am trumpeting Wal-mart, I'll also mention
that it is a good place to get poly-fil (filter
floss). And waterbed drainage kits (for water
changes). And... :)
