We do quite a bit of borrowing at the National Building Museum and it has been my experience that the borrowing institution always pays for incoming and outgoing shipping, as well as crate construction. For a travelling exhibition, we usually only pay for incoming shipping.

Subject: Re: Paying for exhibit

I thought it was the norm to pay only incoming shipping.
Is this the case only if it is going to another site immediately after and they pay the incoming shipping; this way each site only pays one way? If the exhibit is not on tour, going from one site to the next, do others on the list also agree that the renter pays both incoming and outgoing shipping?
