How do I keep ski edges from rusting?

Dry the skis fully before packing, wrap the edges in a towel or guards, and add a silica pack. Moisture is what causes edge rust on a move.

Yes. A padded ski bag ships domestically for roughly $50 to $120. Strap the skis, pad the tips, tails, and bindings, and mark the package fragile.

Should boots and skis go together?

Pack boots separately in a boot bag, buckled closed so they hold shape. Skis go in a ski bag. Keeping them apart protects both and balances the weight.

How to Move Ski Equipment

Moving ski equipment is mostly about protecting the edges, bindings, and boots from damage and moisture. Skis are sturdy but their edges rust and bindings can be knocked out of adjustment. This guide covers packing skis in a bag, moving them in a car, and shipping a set, plus the boot care people overlook.

Difficulty: Easy
Time: Packing: 15 to 20 minutes.
Typical cost: Padded ski bag roughly $40 to $150. Shipping a ski bag runs about $50 to $120 domestically. In-car: free.
Supplies: Padded ski bag, Ski straps or Velcro ties, Boot bag, Edge protectors or a towel, Bubble wrap for bindings, Silica packs or a dry cloth

Pro tip: Buckle boots closed during transit so they keep their molded shape and do not splay out.

Watch out: Do not pack skis wet. Trapped moisture rusts the edges and causes mildew on a multi-day move.
