I had some concerns about what type of packaging would be OK to ship with Fedex and hoped the boxes I got from Uline were going to be OK. As long as I took the time to read this entire thread, please don't think me a fool. I felt I had gone through enough to warrent a post. Other that the minor amount of verbal sparring that went on I thought it was time well spent, there is that fool thing again.

If I gleened anything from all of this I can assume that plain boxes are fine, labeled in accordance with all applicable regulations is required, insulate (unless you want to risk people receiveing dead/injured animals).

The one thing I didn't find any information about is the "Perishable, Handle With Care" stencile on the box. Is that something that is required or not? If so does it have to be printed on the box or can it be a sticker stuck on after manufacturing? It is a good idea for sure, but is it a fine point that will get your test package rejected if not done JUST SO?
