In hindsight, it might have been better to ship it to his home and allow them to leave it at his front door, without requiring a signature.

Yeah I'll try to remember this for my next keg shipping!

Success!! Dave called me to tell me "the canary has laid the egg, and it is safely in the nest. And there are no cracks" They did ask him on pickup to describe the item, and he stuck with the soda syrup, all was fine. Wondering if it was x-rayed and they were doublechecking? Either way, UPS is a safe proven method that it can be done, however I will prolly be shipping greyhound if ever again!
