2U Server Shipping Boxes for HP DL380 Servers
-
@Pete-S - yea those boxes where kinda high in price.. I might be able to get some for free, just gotta wait, but no guarantee, so why I was checking here. To get a box to me, a quick estimate would cost $30-$40 to me, and about $40-60 back to here (via 2nd day, possibly cheaper by ground).. my job has an account and contract with FedEx so shipping out of the state is pretty cheap..
@scottalanmiller, If I can get the box for cheap, then yes it is. I also know the condition and usage of the servers, so kinda wanna keep them.
Was just hoping someone had a box or 2 laying around from new server installs.

plus if i can make something like fright work, depending on cost, I can hopefully add other stuff to the pallet..

Thanks guys, I picked up 2 from Aventis Systems. Took them a while to ship it, but should have it next week. TrippLite was awesome and is sending me the boxes for free to actually ship my UPS up since it would only cost me $12 to send up.

@smartkid808 We should get Aventis in here to say hello!

I have reached out to them, and will see what they say. Also reached out to TrippLite

Kevin is pretty nice.. Dealt with him on several occasions, originally not buying anything. Decided to use him since he didn't have a pushy sales man attitude and always understanding of my needs and price constraints..
