How to ship skis
- First, clean your skis well of all kick and glide wax, including top and sidewalls or include a $10 per pair for cleaning charge. As best you can, make your skis look like new.
- Put a piece of masking tape on each ski well above the bindings. Write your name and chosen grind on the masking tape.
- Tape the skis together using masking tape or elastic bands. Please do not use ski ties or duct tape. Duct tape leaves a residue that can only be removed by using cleaner and we don't return ski ties!
- Using light pressure, squeeze the skis together (clamp) and wrap the bindings using stretch wrap. This step is optional but well worth doing.
- Tape the skis together into groups of 2 or 3. Use bubble wrap or the equivalent (underlayment for laminate flooring) to protect the tips and tails of the skis.
- With regards to ski protection, you can send your skis in a cardboard ski box or in a ski bag. If you send skis in a ski bag, you would be well advised to wrap the entire length of the skis with bubble wrap or the equivalent.
We have an account with Purolator and a very good rapport with them. So, you may choose to send them by Purolator or by Greyhound Bus, we are next to the bus depot in Squamish.
