Shipping a rod. Need help!

Post by pinoyboykev »

Hello everyone, I am trying to get rid of one of my terez rods, but I have never shipped a rod before so I want to see what should I expect before I actually put it on the market. The rod is 6'9" MH so how large of a container should I get and where? Also, how much do you think it would cost to ship something like that? Just trying to get all my bearings so that I have a smooth transaction! Thank you all very much!

PVC with two end caps and some tape . Fill the space in PVC with newspaper . I have gotten 20 or so rods shipped and never had an issue.
Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.

fedex is the way to go. they offer ground shipping that you can ship up to 108in and keep it around $20-$25.
