FedEx Packaging Test Application- Does it need to be overnighted?

Sorry I just sat on hold for 20 minutes to speak to a rep, hung up, and then realized I forgot to ask her this question:

When shipping the test package for certification, does the package need to be shipped overnight? I would perfer shipping it the slower, cheaper way, but don't feel like hindering the process.

Thanks

Nick

Two day works just fine. Good luck!

If you contact the test lab they will give you a number to bill the package to if you ship it two day, it will cost you nothing.

Yeah, they pay for two day air just ask the testing dept to give you the account number to bill it to.

Does anyone know if they periodically change the account number? I considered posting it on this thread, but think that might not be such a wise thing to do...I would be willing to give it out privately by request.

Personally, I would not give out another company's account information...I definitely would not post it. If FedEx is authorizing the use of that account for test packages, let THEM give the account number.

My concern was, despite the information being posted in several places, people still don't know (see post #4, case in point). I was trying to think of a solution to that problem. I didn't post the account number publicly. I was throwing ideas out there on how to solve a problem.

I called my rep and she said no, they will not pay for it. It might all depend on who you talk to. I ended up paying for 3 day, I think
