Posts: 902 Norman,OK | You guys have me scared now, it is my spin pole and I am spending alot of money on it and the other stuff coming with it.
I might have the shipper place something inside it, but it also might alread be in the mail.

If you're dealing with an individual or conciencious shipper, suggest schedule 40 PVC conduit. Not unbreakable but one hell of a lot stronger than cardboard.
