In the kindest way possible I again encourage you to consider shipping this drumset. I`ll layout how to, it doesn`t take more than 1 hour labor and few dollars of materials and suddenly the world is your marketplace.

You need -8 large ziplok baggies

a drum key and a screwdriver

3 large trash bags

a roll of bubble wrap from the home center

2 medium sized cardboard boxes (also available at the home center)

*Use the drum key to take of all drum heads and put them inside each other in a trash bag.

*Use the screw driver to remove all the tension lugs on all the drums. Put all the screws in one ziplock, all the lugs in another and all the tension screws in another.

*Remove all the remaining metal parts and put in the ziplok bags until you have only the wooden shells (leave the badges on the drums!)remaining.

*stack the shells inside each other with a thin layer of bubble wrap between each drum and the next. Put that whole group of shells into a trash bag and then the cardboard box. Fill the remaining space around the cardboard box with packing filler or newspaper.

*Put all the metal parts in box #2

*Seal up boxes and go to post office (USPS recommended)

Sorry to sound pedantic but it`s very easy and safe and you can allow these drums to go to a good home.
