Re: crate weight

The crate is weighed by the Drayage company, FedEx to my knowledge never actually weighs the crate, they rely on you for that. They (dryage) have typically a pallet jack with a scale on it that they use.

Re: crate weight

We got billed for a 455 lb crate. We've been using the same crate for years, and this has never happened before. We're all having trouble believing that the crate weighed 255 lbs (we didn't include batteries, and our robot was 30 lbs over). It's made entirely out of plywood to max regulation size.
