Hi,
Can someone help clear some things up as I've read a few threads here and there is a lot of conflicting info.
I'm looking to have shipped to me multiple (15) BTA's split over 3 bags in one polystyrene box. The box will probably be about 30x30x45cm. It would be using 40hr heatpacks. The outside temp will be low 2-4 degrees Celsius (36-40 F roughly).
The sender advised me they'd bag the bta's and insulate with bubble wrap/newspaper, tape 3 x 40hr heat packs to the inside of the lid then they were going to seal the polystyrene box with shrink wrap.
Would that be suitable or should we do away with the shrink wrap and have some small holes to supply oxygen?
I ask as last week I had 4 BTA's sent to me in a polybox, sealed with tape and 3 x 36 hour heatpacks. The heat packs were cold and I lost one BTA, the other 3 survived fine enough. Also this is a big/expensive order of 15 BTA's that I want to make sure arrive to me safe and sound.
Thanks for the input in advance.
