As Mark said Greyhound....stack the seats on top of themselfs. Space them with cardboard. You might find a water heater box at your local plumbing store. It will fit the seats & dash pads. Wrap the backpad and door panels together. Then wrap in carboard. Use boxes. Flaten them out. Free from the local grocery store.
To ship a rear window (oversized) from ND to CA was $180 from UPS, $150 from USPS and $40 from Greyhound. I shipped a front hood from ND to TN $30 I'm guessing two boxes (one with seats, pads, ect.) and a flat one with backpad & panels would be under $150 by Greyhound. |
