Does anybody know roughly about how much it would cost to ship 2 914 seats somewhere. Just a estimate
Thanks Seth |

I have a lot of experience in this. I was shipping them coast to coast with FedEx for $45 including the box.
How? Go to your local Uhaul store and get a wardrobe box. You will not need the cross bar. You will then need to cut the box down so that when it is closed it measures only 41" tall. If you go to 42" the cost to ship will be $85-vs the $35. So your total final dimention will be 21"x24"x41" Place the first seat in with the bottom down, place something over it to protect it form friction abrasion from the other seat. Plase the other seat upside down in a 69 position with the lower seat. Tape shut and ship. It took a lot of research to figure this method out and has done well for me many time when I was recovering seats. HTH |
