Shipping other than UPS or FED-X!

Oh, forgot to mention a second option. It likely won't be as cheap as Greyhound, but you can at least research it.

Get yourself a pallet, just the right size for the boxes (slightly larger), stack the two boxes, and strap them to the pallet. You can them ship the pallet that way. I Googled freight pricing, and I believe this was the site which I used:

http://www.freightavenue.com/default.aspx

You can go there and at least get quotes on the pricing with the to/from zip codes and weight. Definitely specify that the pallet is non-stackable. It costs a little more, but you don't have a choice.

The freight class tends to be confusing, and I pissed off a shipper once when specifying the wrong one (I didn't know better).

Worth a try...

BTW, are those dimensions correct? 120" seems a bit long, unless that was a centimeter measurement. Actually, I'm gonna guess that's the case.

Mario, I have done both Grayhound and freight. Grayhound is cheap I sent a complete ground effects setup including front and rear covers to Cal and it was like 60 or so. As for freight I used to buy and sell lots of big items on eBay and if you do not ship freight a lot it will cost you a lot. Well I started talking to the salvage yard I used all the time and they where more then happy to help me get their rates. Also as Greg stated check with DHL I have used them in the past also. I bought a pallet of R12 30lb bottles form the warehouse club some years ago, well then I saw that I wouldn't need that much is I started to sell them off one at a time and found out that DHL was the only one willing to handle these and at very good rates.

Bryan is correct; the box size from Anvil is smaller.

Although I did ship a hood 2x from Cali to the Midwest (close to Rick) for about $400...
