Shipping vinyl in the summer heat

I live outside of Palm Springs. Temps are unreal. It is supposed to be 118 this weekend. I have had several LP shipmets arrive in summer months with no problem. The records are warm and toasty upon arrival but not a problem as my seller ships mutiple LPs packed tightly together in a box.

I call my daughter everyday at 11:30am, to remind her to get the mail. Then I wait on the phone while she goes out. That way she doesn't forget ( she is 14). Records have been packed as described above. So far, so good.

The LP I won on eBay shipped from Arizona in the Summer arrived totally melted.
I learned my lesson. Skip buying LPs in the Summer.

Just to chime in, I live in Boulder, Colorado, where temps a week or so ago were in the low 90s. I wasn't home, but my wife was, when UPS delivered a (non-LP) package on one of those days. She spoke with the driver briefly: a fellow driver had recently measured the temp in the back of his UPS truck at 140 degrees Fahrenheit! So goodness knows how hot those trucks get if air temp is 110+. Probably best to avoid 'Brown' when it gets so warm.

I've gotten a handful of LPs delivered over the past few weeks, but all have been well-packed & delivered by USPS to my shaded front door, so no damage so far (knock on wood!).

God forbid UPS putting circulation fans in the truck roofs to moderate temps...
