That's a very nice looking motor. If you were in Chicagoland, I would
have some interest in this motor.

If he could tie it down on a skid & get the skid picked up shipping
might not be too bad common carrier.


Probably way more than the asking price of the motor. I checked what I
could ship 500# from LA to Houston and it was way more than what a regular
shipper gets charged. Regular price was $260.



Shipping is of such nature that prices vary wildly.

Some of the things that I shipped, with costs:

- 500 lbs hydraulic lift from IL to TX, with pickup from my
house, $250
- 500 lbs three DC power supplies on pallet, IL to east coast,
$167 with delivery to local dock
- 200 lbs one DC power supply, $87

I am not a shipping wizard, I simply use Freightquote. They are very
good.
