ok so my friend chris in az (birdtojag on TGO) had me pick up some GTA door panels from a guy up here, now ive got them all packaged up and i wanted to know if itd be cheaper/easier to go ups or USPS? im not big on shipping parts and this is by far the biggest lol i had to MAKE my own packaging for them lol used a box we get our freight orders with, cut off a chunk and folded over the panels, taped and then used that awesome black saran wrap on crack stuff lol

any ideas?

Maybe try a freight (trucking) company? Only catch would be pick up from and delivery to a commercial address.


EDIT: I misread that and thought you were sending whole doors. My panels came from Hawks, I think they used UPS which was the less expensive at the time from Long Beach, CA.

Something that bulky, ups.


Another forgotten way to ship is grayhound bus Very Happy I shipped 3 car bumpers this way and it was like 25bux to ship them from AR to NY city.
