Our team had exactly the same problems. Virtually nothing but batteries and the robot and controls in the crate and we were told we exceeded the 400 lb limit. When I complained that I wanted to be reweighed they said they would not allow it because we could change what we had in there.

It then cost me about $600 to send my robot from Cleveland to Great Lakes. This is more than it cost me to go from Great Lakes to Orlando last year. Two years ago when Yellow was the shipper of choice for FIRST, the same route cost me $100 with a 600 lb crate.

How can this be? We MUST ban together to ensure this does not happen again.
