I just want either the standard (48"x40"x38") or the jumbo freight box(48"x40"x38").
Then I want to ship something cheap in an LTL truck (NOT the air) from Florida to Washington State.
I've called 4 different times and each time I've been redirected to 4 different things which ultimately lead to dead ends. My time deadline to ship is fast approaching, and it's starting to stress me out.
2 things I want to know is the $ difference there is between the 2, assuming if I can even ship the jumbo via cheap LTL truck. And the 2nd part is actually getting the box. It seems easy to schedule a pickup, but getting the box seems impossible or confusing to the fedex phone people.
The last time I called they referred me to a place that sells arbitrary freight boxes, but the website says it supposed to be part of the fixed or flat price? I don't want any hidden surprises by using a non-official fedex freight box.
Has any non-business purposes ever found success and if so how or which way? Please help!!
I heard recently that you can use your own box for Fedex One rate? What has been peoples experience with this? There is a chart somewhere out there that showed cubic inches and then what size it corresponded to. What was interesting is it looked like by using your own box you save money, or can use a larger box than the express boxes...
