Freight/truck carriers

Post by Legacy777 »

Anyone have any suggestions/recommendations on freight carriers. I'll be needing to get a transmission, driveline, & differential down from seattle area to houston.

I am thinking putting everything on a pallot, strapping it down and wrapping it with that saran wrap stuff would probably be the best way to do it.

TIA

some companies require it to be crated too. Just make sure you find out before it's shipped, it's a pain in the ass :P

Write it up as 'scrap' on the bill since there's a discount on shipping. Or at least there used to be. You can crate it up on a pallet very easily if there's no overhang. I've done it a bunch of times - all you need is a power drill with a screw bit, dry wall screws, 2x4s, and plywood.
