Title: shipping cost sucks

Can tell it has been awhile since I've shipped anything. About dropped over the price for a 4 pound package.

Was in the same boat a couple weeks ago with Plastics, and like a fool agreed to including shipping without knowing.

From PA to OK
box 19H x 29W x 46L
28lbs (box was thick)

One quote was $243 and another $206

Nuts! I imagine it's much cheaper for Businesses and they're pricing out Private shippers to ease traffic... Can any Businesses confirm whether or not shipping (not freight) is on the rise?

for those plastics, try using uship and hitch a ride on someones shipment.  I have had entire quads shipped to TX from west coast for less that your plastics quote!

You're correct. You have it far worse than us.

Thanks for the tip, I figured uship just did vehicles.
