IN GENERAL, I DO NOT RECYCLE PACKING MATERIALS
This means that I'm not picking up free cartons at the grocery store or turning Priority Mail supplies inside-out (a felony, by the way) to ship your package. I use brand new shipping supplies purchased from Uline.com. When I quote a shipping price it includes whatever packing I feel will get your item to you safely. However, I will not be offended if you want additional protection for your goods provided you are willing to pay for the extra cost and effort. Below you will find a list of the items I commonly use along with how much they cost me.
