Well, a year ago,,,I shipped eggs and I have also received lots of eggs myself. Some packed well,,,others not! I was amazed as how some eggs arrived at my house. I've had people hardly pack them well at all as though they were shipping a pair of shoes. Sad!! I have found,,for me,,,the best ones that I received were individually bubble wrapped then placed in an egg carton then wrap the egg carton in bubble then place in peanuts or more bubble until the egg carton can in no way shape or form move even a budge. The only way to break the eggs is if someone places a heavy object on top the box which of course can happen. I also had one lady bubble wrap her eggs then place the eggs into more bubble without the egg carton at all,,,then place the eggs in wadded up packing paper until soooooo tight the eggs can not move at all. It took tons of paper though.
One person sent me eggs simply placed in an egg carton then into a box with a few peanuts. Needless to say,,,big disaster. I think one egg survived but had so much yolk on it's shell,,,I considered it ruined. If you are going through the trouble of shipping eggs,,,,why not do it right? Treat it as though you are shipping a piece of blown glass. Always if you can,,,wrap them in bubble then more bubble place them in some sort of small box,,,then add more bubble around that box and then peanuts to where you have a box in a box that can't move and is hard for post office to damage. This is what has worked best for me. A box in a box in tons of bubble wrap!
I just couldn't remember if I was supposed to tell them it's perishable or not. I'm going with NO I think,,,also did not tell them it's eggs. We'll see what happens
Thanks you guys, Julie
