Recommendations for a Freight Shipping Company ?

Postby martinreinhardt on Mon Nov 09, 2009 1:51 pm

Question: Does anyone know an affordable Freight Shipping Company here in San Diego (Air or Ground) ? :?:

I will have the shipping company pack (wood box) and ship a few big lightweight auto bodywork parts to New York.

Yes, Roland has smoothly handled the shipment of two G50s for me via SEKO Worldwide.

They shipped an engine for us after jumping through a bunch of hoops with another carrier.
They were great A+

I have also used Greyhound to ship body parts (944 hood, seats). But there are limitations-no door to door delivery. But really inexpensive!

They will ship doors, but not to another door :roflmao:
Only to the Greyhound terminal.
