    Was wondering if anyone in the chicagoland area knew a good place to get styro-shippers? Seems like the only place I can find it is UHAUL, but they don't offer store pick up for it. I don't have any trades pending, but was just trying to get a few to have just in case. I would greatly appreciate any help. Cheers!

    If your order with UHAUL is over something like $25, the shipping is free. Buy a couple.

    Binny's locations also offer styro shippers of varying sizes and boxes to go with them.

    Yeah, 6-pack wine bottle shipper was $7.99 at Binny's. Worked fine for bombers and 12-ozers. Box is marked "Fragile" and "This End Up." I filled in the gaps with packing material. Shipping was almost $18, FYI. Not sure if shipping costs are different for the U-Line boxes.
