Re: Is fedex right? did ship get delayed for central Mass?

This is rather bizarre as teams in San Antonio, Texas got this same call and there are only six teams with one team who shipped on Monday and another using a third party shipper. One lift gate truck couldn't make the rounds to four school

Palm Beach, FL -- same deal. At 3pm (when they were supposed to be there), they said it would have to be the next day. Some urging got them there after 5pm, but at least they took it on the correct day.

Re: Is fedex right? did ship get delayed for central Mass?

Not having a loading dock is a big issue.

I recommend teams find a friendly business that is willing to allow you to ship the robot from their facility that has a loading dock. Maybe a parent or mentor works at such a place.

Not only do you make it easier for the shipper, but the community tends to ask questions about the crate (free publicity for the team).

I know it saved 1523 ( also Palm Beach County,FL) a ton of grief this year. The business wasn't even a team sponsor (yet).
