So no shipping. And I'll tell you that my car was quite tomato fragrant with all that I stuffed into the trunk and the back seat as well.
Thanks Carolyn, I figured out I could go to grocery stores and get plenty of stackable produce boxes that worked out very good, some Saturdays I had 20+ flats to bring to market so it was very helpful to use that style.
