Sorry I guess i just dont understand. When does the item need to disapear? Any time prior to the company recieving it? After the first scan but before the 2nd? "you need to calculate both storage and transit time" What am I calculating for? Until its weighed for the first time?
Also, still not sure if its ok to ship boxed dry ice package in person to UPS.

I am curious about UPS Scanning / Weight times

There's no point repeating myself, I've already explained everything quite clearly.

If you still don't understand, refer to the articles (there Is more than one) on my blog, as well as the guide titled "When & why weights are taken".

I have, and reread a few again. Maybe its just me, but I dont understand when it should sublimate fully? Any time after first weight? Because if weight scan 1,2 and 3 are all different wont that cause alarm?

So I assume its ok to drop off in store, but must calculate storate time. Is this storage time until the first weight scan?

I suggest that you go and read again because I remember Mothered explains correctly each steps.
You want the weight to register at the drop off and if possible, at sorting center.
The most important part is that when the package reaches destination, the receiver shouldn't be opening the box and see dry ice.

Simple as so.
