Don't ship furniture or ANYTHING valuable through Fedex! All items are sent up a conveyor belt and DROPPED 15 ( +?) or more feet into a bin! I had a very precious antique dresser with mirror completely demolished by Fedex. Insuring? Good luck collecting before the witching hour. I insured with two companies... because of the expense of this item... they dropped my insurance... the best way to ship precious items cheaply... Greyhound Package Express. Persons have to pick it up on their end. But hey... Have shipped dozens of items and nothing was ever lost or broken!
