WHO SHIPS SHEET METAL (QUARTER PANEL) THROUGH 5 STATES WITHOUT A BOX? GM

MY QUESTION : DID IT LEAVE THE WAREHOUSE THAT WAY OR DID THE SHIPPING COMPANY DESTROY THE BOX AND TRY TO COVER IT UP?
I HAD A DELIVERY LAST YEAR , THE DRIVER WAS UNLOADING A PANEL WITHOUT A BOX WHEN I NOTICED A MANGLED PIECE OF CARDBOARD AT THE FRONT OF THE TRAILER.
SURPRISINGLY THE DAMAGE THAT WAS ON THE PANEL,WAS WORKABLE. I DID KEEP THE BOX TILL WE MADE SURE WE WERE NOT GOING TO WAIT 2 MORE WEEKS FOR ANOTHER DAMAGED ONE.

Amazes me to this day that they still ship this way. I thought they had packaging engineers to make sure we received parts in saleable condition. LOL Good Luck with that.
I am sure there are so many stories we could tell that we could print a novel.
