    It was a great tip and thank you. The fed ex website says that you will be recieving it today. The only problem with smaller boxes is less of an opprunity to sort more. I had to do a lot more shoving this time. I did the best I could with some of the stuff. But motherboards have a bunch of other stuff in it, for that box.

    I just got the labels for 2 boxes. One box was 45 lbs, one was 60 lbs. The 6o lbs box was only 2.00 more than the 45 lbs box. It is certainly more efficient to keep the weights around 60 lbs. I'm fairly close to ewasted but you can certainly see the difference in price.

    Lol - just saw Ewasted updated the prices. I hope they went up since I have 3 boxes about to go out the door. 3 boxes - right at 20 lbs each and the quoted price of shipping is under $37. Much better rates then you would get yourself. This will be my 3rd transaction with the company. Already working on my next shippment. Just ran out of room to store stuff.

    Well just got the prepaid label emailed to me, looks like $37.73 to mail a 45 lb box! Better than $41.80 USPS and $49.05 Fed X without prepaid.
    Can't wait to see how this goes! I did add a note stating my Scrap Metal Forum ID (not sure if it gets better pricing or not)!

    Post #31, I recommend to read this entire thread so you become more familiar with ewasted but, it is a pretty simple process.

    Quick question about Fedex picking up packages at your door. Do I need to be home for them to be picked up? Or can I leave them on my front porch all ready to go? Shipment going out tomorrow Ewasted!

    Followup to the above question - Does it cost more for front porch pickup than it does if I drop it off?

    Can anyone verify this??? I'm not sure that is correct. It cost me 24.00 to send 60 lbs to ewasted. There is not much room to add extra fees for having them picked up at my door. I would be willing to drop my packages off if it was even 5.00 cheaper.

    Please email us regarding this. You must understand there are several variables involved in logistics, it isnt a one size fits all model.

    For example: How many packages, how much weight, location - All critical to cost for pick up. If you email us you can get a quote if you provide us accurate details. Our other customers can only tell you about their experiences, such as accurate quoting, not on what they pay for shipping. One thing that does hold true is needed to hold the weight under 70 lbs per box.

    We recommend parcel best value at 65-68 lbs.

    Thanks!!!

    If you live in a rurel area or have multiple boxes to be picked up it might be worth the extra charge, but there are many retail shipping place that Fedex stops at that you can drop them off at for free. Check the Fedex website for these locations.

    I went to ewasted last week in Ohio. It was a great experience! I love the way he treats his people. I will be back.

    Haha, can't believe I read the whole thing! Some pages just hit the high spots, or looked for Ewasteds replies.
    What if I don't have a working printer?
    And, what if I'm in a rural area and have several boxes, will they charge a pick-up fee for each package? (even tho they're only making one trip/stop/pick-up to get them all?
