I have not seen this years shipping information, but in years past you could not ship your robot directly to a district event. My impression is First does not set up drayage at the venue for districts. You can ship it somewhere close to the event (A helpful local team?). You can ship it to the local FedEx terminal, but they will expect you to take your crate with you when you pick up your robot. The freight terminal may not be particularly close to the venue. FedEx at least is not set up to store things. You are essentially shipping LTL freight. Anything in a local district distance will generally be a 2-3 transit.
