    I got a notification today of a box coming to me of an exception and Improper contents, called the center they said during random inspection they found it contained alcohol and must be returned to sender. Any help here have you heard of this?

    It happens. Send with a different carrier for a while (certainly for when you send that box back out), shouldn't be too big a deal.

    Yup. Pack your box so you can drop it from at least five or six feet. After watching those notorious You Tube videos, I've gone as far as throwing it across the room and/or sent it tumbling down a couple flights of stairs. You can't be too careful, especially this time of year when the shippers are experiencing increased volume and are "under the gun" to make sure those packages get to their destination on time.
