    I looked around and couldn't find the exact answers, but if this has been answered before, please point me in the right direction.

    Are the standard wine shippers from U-Haul and ULINE large enough to accommodate the height and diameter of corked and caged 750ml bottles (Casey, 3 Fonteinen, etc)?

    Also, do 32oz crowlers fit in either of these? If not, would they fit in the ULINE champagne bottle shipper?

    Thanks!

    I'll say tentatively yes. I used this one several years ago to ship some Cascade bombers back from Oregon. Someone listed the dimensions in the Q&A and it appears to be just slightly smaller than what UHaul has listed for theirs.

    I've used the 6 shippers from Uhaul several times in the past to send Hardywood 750 corked and caged bottles. They will brush up against the 'side ridges' in the top section of the uhaul shippers but I didn't have any issues closing them.

    Yes to both. I've shipped caged & corked, wider 750s and crowlers in the uhaul shippers for years.
