In the 15 years I've worked at UPS I've seen more 5 gallon buckets filled with contraband then 3rd members <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />.Although I do recommend the bucket idea with foam,you will get charged $5 for additional handling.Unless you put the bucket in a box,boxes can go down the conveyer belt buckets can't.(FYI)
