Depends, if you are sending many I suggest using a box with some type of padding. If you are sending a few (ie 2-4) i suggest using a padded envelope or a smaller box.
Also make sure the cigars are in a zip lock bag with the are taken out to keep them preseved.

Always send cigars in a box.

The way I do it is:

Air tight plastic bag. You can do this by sucking the air out of the bag.

Wrap in bubble wrap.

Place in box and seal.

Be sure to get a delivery confirmation # when you post.

It's always good to be sure that the lucky recipient will be around to get the package. Don't want it sitting around to long.

Hope this helps.

You can get FREE USPS Priority Mail shipping supplies (boxes, labels, etc...) from www.usps.com. They have a slew of different sizes to choose from as well. The small boxes are perfect for sending a 5'er out.

I usually put sticks in a baggie with a humi-pack. Pad the box with newspaper or whatever you have handy. In the end when you shake the box, you shouldn't hear anything moving. Tape the $h!t out of it and its ready to go.

If you use click-n-ship from the usps website, DC is free and they'll pick it up from your front door.

where on the USPS site do you need to go to get the boxes just out of curiosity?
