Re: Shipping help

Here is the directions. It has links to the forms.

Section 5.8 has shipping contacts. At this late date, I would call them because you need to get your crate on the road.

The labels with numbers on them are called pro number. They are the equivalent to tracking numbers & ID numbers. You want one on every side. I tape over them with clear tape so they don't fall off.

The consignee labels is the ship to address. You want that on the front and back of the crate. Front and back is relative to the fork lift that moves the crate.

You should also have a BOL-Bill of laden. It is the multi part fed-ex form. You keep a copy and the driver takes a copy. That form has all the information to ship your robot & billing. This is the one you do not want to lose.

But yes, if you don't deal with truck shipments regularly they can be confusing.
