However, I'm concerned we won't have it back since the instructions state it may be 6-8 weeks.

While we can take the robot, we cannot transport the crate. Are we allowed to take the robot with us and ship the empty crate back? We've built our crate with shelving to use for future years.

Thanks.

There is really no way anyone would know what is or isn't inside of your crate when it leaves the event.
