    AG: ANYTHING but peanuts! Please...

    Guys... can oyu use paper or anything other than Styrofoam peanuts as they go everywhere when opening!!!! I get stuff from other detailing companies and the bubble wrap and mini air pillows are so much nicer for my front yard and unpacking....

    thx!

    Hi Glen,
    I believe the default packing material is peanuts but you can specify paper in the comments field when placing an order online. Believe it or not they actually read that box!

    Sometimes with larger orders they include paper packing, but with smaller orders they just use packing peanuts.

    Very nice to know we can specify using paper as packing material. I hate those peanuts since they always have a charge that causes them to cling to everything. Another plus for paper packing is more environment friendly.

    They start off non static lol the travels make them very clingy

    I think Autogeek really needs to make this more known like a check box option when you check out

    Something that makes you check how you would like it packed and also who to deliver it by (of course profits may be lost in doing something like this)

    But there is one of these threads every week

    I know they are a PIA but, I like them on shipments with liquids in them. With the way things are handled I know the chances of damage are reduced....

    I vote for caramel popcorn in the boxes. Detail supplies and a snack, all in one package. Win, win!

    I don't mind them as long as I am getting free shipping.

    They do have a business to run. I bet if they packaged better it would cost them more and the minimum for free shipping would also increase... I'll take the peanuts
