POLE SHIPPING TO THE SUMMIT

If you want to ship your poles with Bax Global to the Summit, call Jennifer at 1-800-537-7114 or email jennv@pyramid.net with the following information:
1. Number of poles and how they will be packaged (They must be in individual tubes and/or inside large tube in a pole bag)
2. Length of the longest pole
3. Pick up address with contact name and phone number
4. Method of payment for shipping charges

We will accept Credit Cards or checks mailed in and received by January 1, 2005.
*** DO NOT EMAIL CREDIT CARD INFO - CALL IT IN OR FAX IT ONLY

The cost will be as follows: (each way)
Direct Point - $ 75.00 per piece up to 75 lbs
Beyond Point - $ 95.00 per piece up to 75 lbs

Jennifer will advise you what the Freight Company classifies your location as. A pick up will be scheduled between January 7th and the 12th. The poles will be at the Reno Hilton on Thursday evening around 5:00 pm for pick up. You must contact Jennifer at the Summit Registration Desk to collect your poles. If you want to ship your poles back again after the Summit, you must arrange that at this time also. We will accept cash or credit card payment at the summit for return shipping only. Your poles will not be shipped until credit card is approved.

Does anyone know if there will be another special pole shipping arrangement for Reno this year?
May the Force be with you!

Shipping poles scares me!

I would say FLY them if at all possible.

I shipped from PA to Earl's in AR...
4 weeks later they showed up!

:confused:

Was this with Bax Global???
I would much rather work with 100% heart and 75% talent than 100% talent and 75% heart!

No... I am pretty sure it was Airborne Express.

I think they got "stuck" in a warehouse in Ohio.

I sent mine to South Africa via BAX in 1997 for Masters Worlds, and they got back to California seven weeks later via Germany. NEVER showed up in South Africa and we paid close to $1,200. I take them on the plane now. Bubba
