Once again, you all have been a tremendous help to us! Thank you for your practical advice, from pallets to cold drinks and stock purchases :)

If this plan works out, the maps will be going to a good home.

Barbara

Subject: how to ship thousands of maps

Hi folks,

I need your expertise once more. We are withdrawing a large number of sheet maps* and need to know how to ship them most cost-effectively to their new home. Can maps be shipped flat in bulk or are tubes the better option?

Thanks!

Barbara

* ca. 60 full drawers; maps ca. 36" x 36" or larger
