Title: Arrow Boxes
Post by: billy shipp on July 26, 2009, 10:06:00 AM
I have a few arrows I need to ship by the dozen and 1/2 dozen. Where can I buy the cardboard arrow boxes and dividers reasonably.
Does anyone have any good ideas on what to ship 1/2 dozen fletched arrows in?
Any ideas will be appreciated.

Shops like 3Rivers carry the boxes and dividers but with shipping and minimum quantity they aren't inexpensive. If you have s shop in your area where you may be able to get just what you need that would cut cost.
Failing that I suggest priority mail tubes, the longer of the two sizes available. They're free at the local post office and I can fit a dozen arrows in with no problem, 6 up and 6 down, no divider. Use some newspaper so they don't rattle. If I'm trying to impress someone I use regular arrow boxes and dividers, but otherwise these priority tubes work great for both cost and effectiveness.

That sounds like a good idea.

You could use thin wall pvc,end caps and 3 or 4 pieces of cardbroad cut to inside diameter of tube.Cut some slots to slip the arrows in to keep them secure.
