Default Shipping Options For Fireplace Mantle

My son wants me to build him a fireplace mantle. The two-pillar, top-shelf
style. Basically, three long 3-sided boxes which he would assembly and
trim out.

The thing is, he lives 2500 miles from me, so I'm going to have to ship it.
Other than getting quotes from the standard shippers (UPS, FedEx, etc.) I'm
look for other ideas.

I look to the collective wisdom of this group for creative options.


I think building it in three sections that can be assembled on site is a
good idea.

I think Greyhound still does shipping.
Also, Fastenal does shipping store to store.
