My shipment weighed only

Your shipment was oversized
per UPS standards and all oversized boxes are shipped at a minimum

Oversized boxes are
needed to pack some of our larger plastic items and most of
our bulk items. We are always looking for ways to reduce
the box size required to avoid use of oversized boxes. |
