FedEx Package Assessment Application

FedEx Package Assessment Application
An assessment is neither a test nor a design. It is a consultation with a FedEx Packaging Engineer. At the end of the assessment,
you will receive a report summarizing our findings, recommendations, and possible next steps. Please complete this application
and email it to pkgassessment@fedex.com. In addition to the application, please attach photos showing outer packaging, inner
packaging, product, any current damage, box certificate (if available), and other relevant images.
