Re: Shipping big parts

UPS isn't cheap, FedEx is even more, and USPS is ridiculous

You need to make you box's as small as they can be. That saves a ton of $$$. Most of the stuff you asked about is going to price by box size not weight so the smaller the box the cheaper the bill.

I once saved $30 on a box by bringing it home and cutting it down 1 inch.

usps-fedex-ups all have rate calculators on their web sites, use them and you will see the best way. play around with the size of the box and see the diff. in cost..
