The basic question is: If I go to the UPS Store and have them professionally
pack a 65 lb. set for shipping within UPS guidelines, will I have less trouble
collecting from UPS if the item is damaged by them?

Aren't the stores franchises? Seems like an opportunity to get caught in
a finger-pointing war between UPS and the franchise.

My experience with UPS is that when things get damaged, they will do anything
possible to avoid making good on the insurance. FedEx Ground is about as
likely to damage things, but they are much easier to work with when damage
occurs.
