frame packing - anyone have boxes/packing material?

General Help

Hey guys i’ve sold a frame and need to box it to send interstate.

Seeing that heaps of you have contacts at bike shops etc, can anyone help with a box / packing material?

would really appreciate it. I’m in Carlton, happy to pick up.

cheers

Easiest option would just be to give you LBS a ring, and ask if they’ve got any spare bike boxes lying around. They usually do and often just give them out for free. Couldn’t see the harm in asking if they could throw in some bubble rub, foam etc. with it if they’ve got some to spare.

+1 on LBS for box, then do some dumpster raiding for foam etc. I found carpet store dumpsters throw out rubber underlays. Get meters of that shit and just wrap the tubes etc.

Dont forget to brace the dropouts and tips, and extra foam/protection around headtube/bb/seat is good.
