Helpful tips for shipping your seat. First and foremost, use the smallest box you can get your seat into without having the seat crunched up inside of it, if you have to forcefully hold the box closed to tape it shut the box is too small and this will create problems with the cover. When we receive a seat that is in a box too small for it we replace the box with one of our own boxes and the cost is $10 which may go up if our box price goes up. We do not make money on boxes but we want the seat to make the trip home safely and not get damaged inside a box that is too small for it.
The reason behind the smallest box the seat will fit is due to the shippers not using the actual weight of the seat but Dimensional weight, the larger the box the more they consider it to weigh by the amount of space it takes so the smaller the box the less shipping cost will be.
