Default moving 1-ton; first time trying

On Mon, 10 Mar 2008 03:28:52 -0700 (PDT), with neither quill nor
qualm, " quickly quoth:

roll smaller stones
onto pallets as tightly as possible (try to get some stretch wrap from
campus shipping).


Around here, the guys selling palletrized stone use chickenwire as a
wrap. A roll of chickenwire is cheap...

I'm doing several pallets full of flagstone for a client and they come
wrapped in regular field fencing wire. It's 20ga wire in 6x6" squares
down to 2x6" rectangular openings at the bottom. Top and bottom have
16ga wire runs. $90 for a 367' roll of 4' tall fencing.
