Hi Mark,

I use Freightquote

I have an account setup with them and have shipped transaxles, motors, wheels, etc through them. They are proactive and call me to see how things are going. Normally they do the legwork and find the closest shipping dock to take things to get the best prices.

Their quotes were pretty much market standard, but I like their service.

Use Central Transport - 1-(800)-4-central

or R& L Carriers dont know phone #

Both are budget carriers

Get insurance!

Bud just used forward air to ship that big tall wing he had to the west coast. I think he said it was around 320 pounds and he had it in a huge crate. They were also one of the more economical and fast ways to go
