yeah, Jeff is on the crack rock saying to just ship it full.

I'm gonna say just open it up inside a shut closet and have fun with the nice WA-WAs.

I don't think it's safe to open it in a closet b/c it's mixed with sulfer to make you sick unless its medical grade n20 which i'm pretty sure they aren't putting in your bottles these days...

Anyone actually tried it?

just put it in a cardboard box and make sure you wedge it with something like other smaller cardboard boxes. ship that sucker fuuullllll. Nothin will happen, and if it does,
I bet it won't happen again.lol But seriously, I'd ship it full. There's no way they can tell if it's full or not.
And they don't open boxes.

dont ship it full! You take to many chances of getting a fine or hurting someone. You know good and well that shipping places dont care how they handle a box and id hate for someone to get in trouble because they blew up a ups man

Dude, that was a joke. Why do u think so many people have said it already?

Yes just open it and vent it in your back yard, ship it empty.

Nuff said, easy enough.

actually what you should have done is vented it inside a box with some sort of small animal inside; like a cat or a rabbit.

Come on, who here hasn't microwaved a cat in the past?

I can name at least one reason why you should never ship a bottle full: SHIPPING COSTS!
And oh, don't fully empty a bottle. Drain it outside to the point where no liquid is coming out and the pressure inside it is like 5psi or something, just don't let it reach atmospheric pressure.
