I hope you are not shipping via USPS as the oversize box will cost more shipping wise...possibly substantially more. I don't know what UPS and FEDEx are doing on oversize these days.
USPS changed early this past year to a weight and dimensional combo metric and it really stings on large and heavy boxes now unfortunately.
Also most customers hate...really hate...styrofoam crumbs and/or styro packing peanuts.
They were all the rage for packing in the 80's, but man are they a mess, and they static charge really bad and then cling to anything and everything like gangbusters. Very frustrating to clean up.
Switching to bubble wrap was a HUGE improvement for shipping. Light and flexible, no mess, and really good crush protection depending on the bubble type and how you pack it in.
I hope you don't get charged extra on the shipping due to the box.
