somewhat new -- in the States, UPS is now offering BIG shipping supplies -- like the kind of containerboard in large size you would ship an oscilloscope or CD player in. The prices are much more reasonable than the consumer outlets like Staples or OfficeMax. All you need is a UPS account. Also, it's very easy to set up accounts with UPS, the US Post Office and FedX -- and all will schedule pickups at your office or home --
