Initial Question: Shipment from remote location
Eva L.: Hi, this is Eva L.. I'll be happy to assist you.
claudine: I've won an auction in Atlanta GA & I'm responsible for shipping; how do I package the item & use UPS for shipping?
Eva L. (Listening)
claudine: I'm in CA
Eva L. (Listening)
Eva L.: I suggest that you use a new corrugated box for the item. Cushion the item sufficiently. Seal the box well and label the package accordingly. UPS Packaging Guidelines are available on-line at the following link: http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/ resources/ship/packaging/guidelines.html You may create a shipping label on ups.com to print it and attach it on the box.

Eva L.: May I know what item are you shipping?
claudine: It's a piano stool
Eva L. (Listening)
claudine: approx 20 lbs
Eva L. (Listening)
Eva L.: Do you have packaging materials on hand?
claudine: I'm in CA--while I very well may have packaging materials myself, I am not in GA, so I cannot pack the stool myself
Eva L. (Listening)
claudine: could UPS pack it for me?
Eva L. (Listening)
Eva L.: Yes. They may take the item to any nearby UPS location to be assisted with sufficiently packaging your item. They may also help create a shipping label. A government issued photo ID is required to ship a package to a main UPS facility. You can make use of the following link to check for UPS locations: https://www.ups.com/dropoff?loc=en_US
claudine: how can I add insurance on this, as it is fragile
Eva L. (Listening)
Eva L.: Do you have any other questions?UPS's liability for loss or damage is limited to $100 if no value is declared on your package(s). UPS's liability for loss or damage can be increased for an additional charge by recording a Declared Value in the appropriate field at the time of shipment. If you will be creating the shipping label online, Declared Value is in section 3 of the "Create a Shipment" page.
