**FIRST EMAIL**/FedEx Airbills and Robot Shipping Information
Greetings Teams:
FedEx Airbills With just 18 days to robot ship, we know that many of you are thinking about your FedEx shipping airbills. We will start mailing these to teams on February 11th and they will go out FedEx 3-day mail (please refer to section 6.5 of the manual.) Before mailing, however, we are requesting each of you verify your Shipping Contact Information in TIMS at https://my.usfirst.org/frc/tims/ by 12:00 noon EST Monday, February 7th. Please do the following: Verify the Shipping Contact is designated correctly (i.e., right person) Verify the mailing address and telephone number are accurate. Please note: No P.O. Box addresses - FedEx will not deliver to P.O. boxes. Also, if your Shipping Contact is at a business/school location please make sure the business/school will be open during the week of February 14th for accurate delivery. If the airbills are returned to FIRST due to a bad address, your team will be responsible to pay for them to be re-shipped to the correct address. **IMPORTANT** These airbills cannot be replaced if lost. Please make sure the person you have selected as your Shipping Contact is aware that the airbills are coming to him/her. Please also advise they be kept in a secure place until robot ship on February 22nd! Only these pre-printed airbills will be accepted for the complimentary ship - No hand-written airbills will be accepted. Shipping Labels Please make sure you have the correct Shipping Label for your crate. Per Section 6.4.2 of the manual you can download the Shipping Label for your event at http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/2005/rgevents.htm Click on "Site Info" for the regional event you are attending. You will find this label toward the end of the document. Battery Pack Please make sure your battery is packed according to the specifications given in Section 6.2 of the manual. There is a "NonSpillable Battery" slip at the end of each regional's "Site Info" section. Go to http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/2005/rgevents.htm and click on "Site Info." Proceed to end of document. Shipping Verification Once your robot has shipped you will need to verify shipment. Please read Section 6.4.5.1 of the manual carefully for appropriate verification. Tip! Build your robot shipping crate with weight in mind so you don't incur additional shipping and/or drayage charges. If you have any questions please contact frcteams@usfirst.org. Go Teams! |
