I am getting ready to launch some auctions. They are bedding and pillows. (I make )
Anyway, I need to find shipping 'bags'.
I've had things delivered to me before in this type of plastic shipping bag. I looked and looked, googled till I couldn't google any longer and nada
I know they are out there, and I'm surprised I can't find them on the internet (I find everything else here! )
I've had bedding shipped to me in heavy duty type plastic bags. They would also make it all lighter to ship
Anyone? I think they would have to be about 24"x 24" and be able to be approx 5 or so inches deep. (I may be wrong on that size, just guesstimating now)

Near - they are not as fancy as the grey heat sealed bags you are probably used to but a great, dual purpose and affordable solution is "contractors bags". You can get them at Lowes or Home Depo. They are super heavyweight lawn type bags.
When we finished unpacking all of the stuff from my moms I tossed all of the peanuts in a couple of them, made a couple passes with the duct tape, slapped a label on them and shipped them back to my place for reuse. Not a single hole to be found or peanut lost.

Try www.uline.com . I checked their catalog and looks like they have quite a few bag products that might fit your needs. They even sell the vinyl bags that blankets and comforters come in. If your shipping directly in the bag I might using a oversized Tyvec envelope. It would be more puncture resistant than a regular poly or vinyl bag.

tomford, thank you, and duh me I found them on ebay, but only ordered 25 to make sure they will be the right ones! Thanks!
Mike, uline kept coming up in my google search, and I couldn't find what I wanted, they have a lot of products, so I probably missed it, but will look again. Your right tvyek is strong! And maybe uline has the large tyvek bag
Thanks!
You can call them at 1-800-295-5510 and ask for a catalog. Once you order from them you get on their mailing list and get a current catalog every 3 months.
