Yes you can ship alcohol. Your best bet would be to not say what is really in it though. Th only way the driver can release the package with KNOWN alcohol contents is if they obtain a signaure from someone over 21 ie: your buddy wll have to be home to sign for it, which can be a pain in the ass. Just package it good, and say it’s car parts.

yeah you’re not going to have an easy time shipping it, i work for the usps, and we don’t ship alcohol. your best bet is to not tell anyone what’s really inside and hope it goes through. package it well though.

You can get green label jack at the Niagara Air base. Just find someone who’s in the reserves to pick it up for you. I myself am out of there, thank god…

Irrelevant, really. There aren’t special conveyors, rollers for “fragile” stuff. It goes the same place as the other stuff. Just package it good, and forget about it. If you package something properly, it shouldn’t need ANY special directions on it.
