Mailing Prints

[rmh159]

I'm going to need to mail out some matted prints (likely 11x14's including mat). Does anyone have advise for an easy way to mail them so that they won't bend? If not I'll package it myself and take it to FedEx.

Would putting cardboard behind the print work?

Yeah if I have to package them myself, I'll probably box em up. I just wasn't sure if anyone knew of any service (UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL) that offered something specifically for sending pics. Just curious ... I figure this is something a lot of people on here probably have experience with.

i'm pretty sure that UPS will - but you pay a premium for them to pack the box - i suggest going to the local grocery store and asking for old egg boxes, cutting them up and putting one piece of the box on each side then taping like crazy.
