Hello,
I’m seeking opinions on map tube diameters for shipping large quantities of maps. We want to order a set of uniform-sized tubes for ultimately shipping more than 10,000 maps.
We’ll probably order Jumbo Kraft Tubes 48” in length from Uline. Diameter options are 5”, 6”, and 8”.
Would the 8” diameter be too unwieldy?
And, does anyone have ballpark figures for many maps (let’s say 7.5 minute topo sized) can fit in the various diameter tubes?
Thanks,
Janet Reyes
