How to label a tuba for shipping....

Post by Sandlapper »

Besides Fragile, delicate instrument, handle with care. The horn I just got was labeled large bold letters "Caution: This box contains a Tuba. For your safety, do not polka within 15 feet"

The UPS Freight Driver pointed the label out to me before I could read it and was smiling the whole time we unloaded and unpacked the horn.

Thank you Horn Guys.

Oohhh.... What did you get?

Besides those labels, I like "This end up," and I put everything in English and Spanish.
