In the past, I have had customers ship with this method most commonly and thepackage arrived without any complications. Customers have packed the contentsin a sturdy box before bringing it into the post office. If you choose to gothis route be sure the remains are packed per the instructions, so it does notleak and shut down the facility. If you need to claim what the contents aresimply stated, they are “jewelry supplies”. Please note this is at yourown discretion. Please get tracking, you are responsible for thepacking and shipping you send to us.
