I was referring to trombones, trumpets, french horns mostly. To make these truly "damage PROOF", their packing cartons would far exceed UPS's maximum allowable sizes.

I consider any 3/4 tubas that I ship "shipped at my own risk", because they are only (by the size limitations) about 3 inches or so away from the carton exterior. I've never filed a claim on a dented tuba that I've shipped via UPS, because I didn't consider it "fair", even though they have been consistently "unfair" with me when damaging extremely well-packed smaller instruments.
