Fishing rods delivered to home. Package handling.

Yessir theres a 50lb limit on packages for a reason. Any and all priority and parcel select packages under 50lbs all tossed (literally) into the same bins and thrown (literally) onto the same conveyor belts. They used to say somewhere that for insurance you need to package your items to withstand 50lb objects. I havent read the insurance policy in a while though since i do not usually ship fragile items.

Ive gotten 50lb boxes of lead many times, imagine that falling on your fishing rod when exiting the sorting machines. Always ship your rods in pvc tubes.

They certainly have no mercy

I keep all the tubes that my rods come in for when I need to ship out a rod that I've sold. Haven't sold one yet, but if and when I do, I'm ready.
On a side note, I noticed that my pile of tubes was looking a little disheveled. Upon investigation, it appears the wife has been cutting some up with the reciprocating saw, stuffing them with lint from the dryer and using them for firestarters. Never let a woman near your powertools.

I still have the bottom halve of a Wally Marshall Signature rod I purchased off EBay 10 years ago. The seller simply wrap the rod in some butchers paper and sent it that way. I was shocked that it was only broken in on place. I have been looking for a replacement tip for it every since.
