If you're driving the robot to the drayage site for Waterloo, then you shouldn't have to worry about FedEx for right now. Make sure you fill out the forms that RoboMom mentioned above.

Also, since you are going to events in back-to-back weeks, you will not be able to use FedEx to ship from Waterloo to Toronto. From Section 4 of the manual:

Quote:
Consider the following if: You have back-to-back events: You cannot use The FedEx donation because it is a
“ground” shipment. Crates are due at the drayage facility on Monday so there will not be
enough time to make it from one event to the next drayage terminal/warehouse.
You will need to talk to the Shepard booth at Waterloo and have them ship your crate to Toronto. Having been to the Waterloo event twice before, they always go around and ask the teams if they're going to Toronto. They typically have a truck lined up specifically to take crates to that event, since so many teams at Waterloo also go to Toronto.
