Title: Several years of mailing 10-20 pounds of weed has taught me a thing or two
Post by: Denotsko on August 30, 2011, 12:10 pm
For several years I sent packages to the east coast USA from where I lived in New Mexico.  I consider myself an expert.  This is how to do it.

First you should always use FedEx.  USPS puts the mail below passenger liners and so they tend to inspect things a bit better.  FedEx has its own fleet of airplanes and therefore if they miss a bomb it only kills the three people in the cockpit.

I used Next-Day-Air every time.  Dogs can smell week through gas and metal if it has been saturating it long enough.  The less time the weed sits in its package the better.

Buy new Tupperware and shipping box for each shipment. 
Do not pack until you are ready to send.
Do not take the boxes or Tupperware into a house that has had any controlled substances in it.

PACKAGING:
Wear gloves!
Put as much weed into a freezer zipper bag and duct tape the end that opens.  then do it again so you have at least double bagged the weed.  Duct tape it so it is air tight.
pack the bag/s into the Tupperware and add a dryer sheet and a paper towel with a few drops of ammonia on it.
Use Vaseline to coat the seal of the Tupperware lid and then pop it on securing with more duct tape.
if you are shipping brick weed then you can pack it into the shipping box as tight as you want.  For kind bud you should add some weight to the box or it may get flagged to inspect.  (I have never had brick weed caught but 2 of the 5 boxes of mushrooms were held up!  FedEx uses an equation that takes the dimensions of the box and then divides it by the weight.  They compare the result to a chart with 2 red areas on it.  If you fall into the red you are going to be looked at closer.)

ADDRESSING:
use another persons return address.  Someone that you know has no drugs and that you can see their house.
The mailing address should be First initial and then similar or misspelled last name.  They can use this in court to get off if the package does get popped.  (my mushroom customers got off free due to this practice.)
ALWAYS WAVE THE SIGNATURE.  Ask how if you have to.  Tell the FedEx guy that you know the recipient will not be there but the package will be fine in front of their house.
Always use next day air!  The less time the weed can saturate the box the better.

If the package gets caught it will be delivered ON TIME and the recipient and the return address will be raided at the same time. 
Take the package to a FedEx main distribution center if you can.

+1 next day air FOR SURE. not so keen on fedex though. always been a USPS person for weight.

but i question one thing - all this experience and you speak of tupperware and vaseline? Come on man....quadruple vacuum sealing and / or vapor sealing. tupperware is for your house. it also adds a defined shape to your parcel which never helps.

one important thing you forgot to mention - applies to all carriers - dogs and screeners will utilize the "Pin Method" where they will attempt to stick a pin into your parcel in an effort to expose smell so the dogs can go apeshit, giving them probably cause to rip your shit apart. LINE YOUR PARCEL WITH WOOD AND/OR IMPENETRABLE MEDIUM. VERY IMPORTANT WHEN SHIPPING WEIGHT.
