I'm interested in talking with someone who has experience shipping hardware that has been pulled from a working environment.  The assumption is that it would not use a normal carriers such as UPS of Fedex, but via private freight.  

Assuming that 20 x 1U switches and a handful of 10U chassis's were to be shipped, has anyone found a productive way to package them in something other than the boxes they come in?  Has anyone tried to crate / pallet pack them or something more efficient?  


If so, please contact me offline if you are willing to share your experience.


Jason
