Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I called the testing department today just to verify and you are correct if you use similar packaging you do not need to have other sizes tested. He also said exactly what you quoted above, just make sure and use thicker insulation on larger boxes.

Fyi
I just began this process myself...and I don't know how the rest of you did it, but it's not possible(that I have found anyway) to get a live person on the phone by calling the 800-GOFEDEX number supplied.
I ended up calling the live animal desk and had the person there find out who my local rep was and give me that persons number directly.

If you just print out the application and send in your box, the paperwork you receive back from testing has your reps name and phone number on the sheet.

Anyone planning on doing this in the future, don't wait till the last minute to get started. My package test was accepted and I am waiting on legal. I have been "waiting" on legal since the 6th of July. Come to find out, there is only one person in the legal department that can do the paperwork. Guess where he is, vacation. WTF, if anything happens to this guy I guess we're screwed.

I don't know if I have a link, but I have the application...shoot me an email and I will send it to you (or you could just ask your rep...the process is a whole lot easier if they are working with you, vs you trying to do it on your own)
