I shipped a Queen Anne cabinet and stool from WV to West Coast by FedEx Ground and it arrived in perfect condition. I use it for shipping the sewingm machine head, too. That rigid foam works well to keep large things from digging out of cardboard boxes.
That's too much work for me:> I will have to stick local if I decide to part with them.
