Shipments to Audio by Van Alstine

Domestic: Ship your equipment to AVA via an insured carrier. Make sure to insure the package for the full replacement value of the unit. Wrap the unit in a plastic bag so packing dust and bits cannot get inside it. To best protect the equipment, ship only one unit per carton and pack it so the unit will survive a drop down a flight of stairs. Packing peanuts are fine for preamps and light equipment, but heavy power amps need more protection. Building supply stores sell foam insulation in 8' sheets. Use them to create a cocoon for your big power amp. Crumpled newspaper just isn't strong enough to protect your electronics. Make sure your name and address are affixed to the unit itself.

International: Please contact us.
