Places to buy a box and bubble rap to ship bumper?

I need my cousin to ship me my rear bumper. However he is having difficulties finding a box that my bumper would fit inside of. Does anyone here know a website or store located in the penticton bc area where he could possibily buy the box from?

Have him go to an auto body repair shop and see if they have any extra boxs laying around? A big shop should have plenty to choose from?

I know you're looking for a box, but you should also consider shipping w. greyhound.

Ship it with greyhound, it's the cheapest option and you don't need a box. Just wrap the hell out of it with plastic and bubble wrap and you're good to go.

bingo!...body shops always have bumper boxes lying around....trust us.....in fact if he stops in and tells them your story, they may save one aside for you.

Walmart has a 16 dollar roll of bubble wrap that is huge.

Whatever you do don't go to an office store they will rape you.

Ebay if you need even more bubble wrap
