to ship body parts, id suggest using a chainsaw of some sort and definitely make sure you double bag the limbs so they dont leak. then tie the bag off and put it in a cardboard box using newspaper and paper towels as insulation and an absorbent.

cost me $40 to ship a bumper from detroit, mi to tampa, fl. best of all, no boxing is required and arrived there in 1.5 days. all you need to do is plastic wrap it. the only thing is that the buyer must pick it up from his nearest greyhound station and you need the buyers phone number
good luck

ice will smell. you need a special delivery service that has a build-in refrig to keep temp cold. ask your doctor about how he delivered your heart to another waiting patient. :-)

Agreed they are great for larger items and very affordable! USPS/UPS/FEDEX will all rape you at the register.
