Looking to ship a palletized engine to the east coast , who has had luck with whom?

I'll be dropping it off at the depot to save on lift gate fees and such , just looking for a good recommendation.

You can always try U-Ship dot com. You'll get to name your price at that site.

I've also used USF Holland when I had to ship a set of rear tractor rims to IA and a tractor front mount blade to NY. Worked out fairly well. Costly for the buyer. I dropped off both items at the cross dock.

I have also heard of freightquote.com or something like that. I have had stuff freighted to me in the past from Dayton Freight, Yellow Freight, etc... I usually just pick it up at the depot as it cuts cost and delivery times.

Your in a good location, cause there's several in the Tri-State area.. I would call around see what kind of deal you can get.

Good Luck

I'm currently having a problem getting the last $500 he owes me , sent me $200 a month ago to hold it and nothing since.
