SongTower shipping box size?
« on: 21 Jul 2010, 04:10 am »
Well my SongTowers and SongCenter should hit the local FedEx Ground facility tonight or early this morning :D. Due to the fact that I will not be home much after 12pm tomorrow I might go pick them up. Can anyone tell me the size of the box the SongTowers come in. I have a Subaru Outback so unless the box is huge it should fit no problem with the rear seats down. If not I will have to wait till Thursday :(.

But thats fine as I will be too busy with work to set them up till at least Sunday. I do not want to rush things as I want to take my time applying the plinthes and all that :).

Bill,
I don't have experience with boxed ST's, but when I picked mine up some years ago from Jim's (unboxed) they fit in my Ford Focus sedan, so I'd think even in shipping boxes they'd fit in your Outback (I'm guessing it's a wagon).

John,

Yes it is a good sized wagon. My thoughts are I should be fine and I actually found some pictures showing the STs in a box and it looks like it will fit fine. Its about a 40 minute ride to the FedEx Ground facility so I wanted to be sure :).

Thanks, Bill

Jim,

Thanks, the box fit no problem into the Subaru. I thought I would wait to set everything up but not a chance :D. I met the FedEx driver and just couldn't wait. I will give a more indepth review later as I have to run off to work. If ever there was a reason to prolong a vacation the STs are it but I have to be responsible :wink:.

Arthur,

Thanks :). No FedEx truck pictures but if I can figure out how to link pictures of the STs and SC here I will do that when I get a chance.
