Square tube was damaged, but the rubberized mats inside were unharmed. Mat 2 was in the tube loose, while the other two had plastic keeping them rolled. Mat 1 looked like a retail product, except the cards included were taped to the outside. I was unable to open the box cleanly. I'd like to use the box for transportation and storage, but am going to need another solution.
I'll probably pick up another poster tube for the mats.

Another good item for storing mats are drafting storage tubes.

Going to use 4inch PVC pipe for mat storage. They used to be cheaper than art tunes, now they're a bit more. BUT they are waterproof and it takes deliberate effort to crush them.

Very bad unboxing of the play mats.

I just got notification from FedEx that my double ace box will be delivered tomorrow instead of today.
Since I wasn't actually expecting it till Monday, I'll call that a win!

My play mats showed up earlier in the week - they were dropped off sans notification in a pouring rain. The box was basically destroyed, but the mats were untouched.

Got my Double Ace box today.

Any advice on how in the heck to keep everything? Right now I'm just using the Double Ace cube to hold it all and hoping to find some way to organize it.
