Houston and other cities,
We have been shipping with a new trucking company that are giving us great rates so please let sales@kamado know ASAP the amount of boxes you would like and we will get you the new rate.
Our new boxes are nicely hand packed extrusions and we are able to get close to an average of 19 plus pounds a box and certainly over 18 pounds a box. Pallet price is still $8.99 a box fob San Diego.
Note: All trucking companies have become very strict on the weights that shippers put on our shipments. For example, one of Fridays shipments was to Portland, OR which was for 77 boxes and weighed 1539 pounds with the pallet or without the pallet of 50 pounds, the average box weighed 19.34 pounds. |
So the boxes have a marked weight of 16.5 and the boxes actually weigh 19.34. So that means that there is 2.84 lbs. extra per box. That's a lot of Number Two.  |
