text: As a general rule, distribute your items' weight between all of your boxes evenly. No boxes can weigh more than 45 lbs, and excessive use of tape is encouraged. Also, please make sure to secure fragile items with bubble wrap or other protective wrapping. If these items arrive broken without proper precautions then FedEx may decline your damage claim. We highly recommend not shipping items that you may need immediately such as medicine or medical devices, important documents or highly valuable items.
