Hey everyone,
I just have a quick question about filling out the donated FedEx bill of lading. We have filled out the shipper and the consignee portion of the bill, and we had our coach sign the bill. Is there anything else we need to do? The example on the FIRST website makes it look that way, but the whole bill just looks too empty!
Am I missing something here?
Just follow what the instructions say. Its pretty clear with a good example of what to do.
Make sure the consignee is the Shepard/drayage storage address and NOT the regional competition address.
And dont forget to post in TIMS.
Why post to TIMS?
This is the first time I’m doign shipping.

I’m guessing you read Section 4 of the Manual, correct? 4.10 (verification processes) doesn’t say you need to do TIMS confirmation; it says to send verification to FIRST via mail (or automatically, depending on who you use).
4.10 says that if you use FedEx you don’t need to do anything. FIRST will track your robot.
