Use the following instructions for packaging your samples:
- Place each sample (with secured cap or lid) in its own zipable plastic bag containing some type of absorbent material (such as a folded paper towel) in the event of breakage.
- Place the bag(s) into a small box (must be able to fit in a UPS clinical pack envelope) with one ice pack (separate bag) and padding material.
- Keep the total weight to as close to one pound as possible. For large quantity submissions, please contact the lab first for packaging advice.
- Place the box into a UPS clinical lab-pack envelope (request UPS part#01019521501 from your UPS representative for a free supply), attach a pre-printed label and schedule a pickup or drop off your package at the nearest UPS shipping location.
- Please note that packages that don't comply with the service type, size and weight requirements may be subject to a higher fee. Commercial shipping companies such as UPS use a "dimensional" weight. This takes into account the actual package weight and dimensions (width, height, and depth). Boxes exceeding 139 cubic inches are billed at a higher rate. Shipments using clinical lab-pack envelopes are not subjected to this calculation.
