Default How to ship carpet and door panels

Not sure where to post this so did it here. Just scored on some clean black panels and carpet. Never shipped anything before so would love some inputs before I sell.

ship ups, that will probably be the cheapest but either way something that big will still be a bit costly

I shipped a black carpet earlier this year. It was $153 for the box + packing + shipping from CA to NJ through fedex ground. They used a box that was meant to hang clothes during moving. I think you can buy the same box at home depot. After fitting the carpet inside they cut it down to size to fit.

Go to uhaul and get a large mirror box for door panels.....

For carpet I would get a tv box and try to fold it up and make it as flat as possible...

I have shipped 2 door panels and they were not more than $75 shipped each
