A method and system for bundling elongated material surrounded with a plurality of binding frames, each binding frame having vertical and horizontal members attached so as to form a rectangular shaped frame. The vertical and horizontal members are connected using corner jigs, each corner jig having a horizontal base adapted to receive a horizontal member and a vertical sleeve adapted to receive a vertical member. Each binding frame is then surrounded with a binding band adapted to hold the corner jigs and frames in place so as to maintain the elongated material in the bundle.

1. A bulk packaging system for bundling elongated material, said system comprising:(a) a plurality of binding frames adapted to surround said elongated material, each of said binding frames having two vertical and two horizontal members, wherein each said vertical and horizontal member has opposing ends and each end of a vertical member is in contact with an end of a horizontal member so as to form a rectangular shape to said frame; (b) a plurality of binding bands, each said binding band adapted to surround a said binding frame and maintain said binding frame in contact with said elongated material; and (c) a plurality of corner jigs for reinforcing said binding frames, each of said corner jigs comprising: (1) a horizontal base, said horizontal base having an inner channel and a groove, wherein said inner channel is adapted to engage a said horizontal member of a said binding frame and wherein said groove is adapted to receive a said binding band; and (2) a vertical sleeve, said vertical sleeve attached to said horizontal base so as to form an angle, said vertical sleeve having an opening opposite said horizontal base and a groove along said vertical sleeve, said opening adapted to receive a said vertical member of a said binding frame, said groove adapted to receive a said binding band; whereby each said frame has a plurality of said corner jigs adapted to connect each said vertical member to each said horizontal member and a said binding band surrounding said corner jigs and said frame such that each frame bundles said elongated material.
