bladesparkWell, turns out the rolls weigh 24 pounds, give or take a smidge. This is good. I shall be weighing them on the scale, now that I know they won't break it, for accuracy.
I'm a touch over halfway done with the cutting and reboxing process. And boy howdly, it's a REALLY good thing they're so light! Each roll is in a box that measures 20" X 20" X 64" This is rather large. I must get this box down from the stack of fur, open it, take out the roll, roll it out, measure off three yards, roll it out some more, (not enough floor space to roll out all five at once,) measure off two yards, cut off the five yard legnth, fold that up carefully and stuff it into the smaller boxes going internationally, roll the rest of the roll back into the box, duct tape the box thoroughly so it won't come open, move it to the stack in the dining room, and go get the next box down. During all this I must constantly move the cat to prevent her from being crushed by boxes, run over by rolls, or folded up in the international packages. When the international boxes are full, I tape them up and add them to the stack in my bedroom. Fur! Everywhere!
Seven down, six more to go, and four of eight international are boxed up. Whee!
