title says it all how do you guys ship those big light boxes for cheap ,post office wont even ship the dman thing and ups categorizes it so high that its like 120$ to ship a box ,unreal ,whats the cheapest method

plastic wrap they sell at any like packaging store ( i get mine at office max ) put all plastics together and just plastic wrap them , fed ex ships them for around 30 bucks max .

 

by far fed ex is the cheapest !

I bought some fenders off Ebay one time and shipping was only $30.I believe that was with UPS too.I would say with both front and rear it shouldn't cost no more than $50.

That fucken oversize surcharge is a bitch aint it? I learned that one the hard way the first time I shipped a -2 swingarm in a standard sized box through USPS.

 

Its actually cheaper buying two boxes at Office Depot that are too small for the swingarm, and then use one for a top and one for a bottom and tape the shit out of them than it is to use a box that fits. The length goes oversize by about an inch.

good to hear

 

 

 

only down side to grayhound is you have to ship and pickup at the station as fed ex delivers item to the buyers door

 

I used to ship the shrink wrap way but people bitch alot if it ain't in a box got bad feedback that way on ebay a while back, now box and grayhound is only way I ship frames, plastics, anything big.

yeah, go greyhound....only way to go...had to ship a rear window from a suburban from Cali to Wisconsin once, ups wouldn't touch it 'cause of liabillty, and fed ex wanted over $200, I went to grey hound and shipped it for $30...and guy had it next day....

there are a few other ltl shippers out here with p&d service i have used roadway and dhl as well as fedx

[stclark816]

I stretch wrapped the shit out of a full set and sent it through fed ex for 22 bucks.

Just a little something I learned when I shipped my banshee frame to Utah from Wash. st. If you can get UPS to classify your package as "irregular" instead of the actual dimensions it will wind up being less than half the normal price.

Frame irregular=$38

frame by dimensions= $118
