"FRAGILE" Stickers for Miraphone 5050 case

Post by SouthernOhio53 »

Question: Does anyone have or know where I could get stickers to put on my Miraphone 5050 case for a flight to Italy this summer? I have seen some that say things like "FRAGILE - DELICATE INSTRUMENTS" or "FRAGILE - DO NOT DOUBLE STACK", but they only seem to come in rolls of hundreds.

Thanks in advance.

I always put the stickers in both English and Spanish. Fragile, This Side Up, Do not stack, and a sign on the top stating to put nothing in top of it.

Have never had an issue when doing this. I always guessed that a huge tuba box was beyond the usual box throwers' strength/ability, and that I had otherwise packaged it well enough to survive the trip.

Beyond that... Pack well, local deals, and get private insurance (not whatever FedEx/etc offers).
