How to ship a mirror?

The mirror is about 5ft by 3 ft and the frame is about 2 1/2 inches thick. Total weight is about 80 pounds. Any suggestions about how to get this done (economically) would be appreciated. I calculated the cost via UPS to be about $300.00 which is more than I can justify for the mirror. Build a sturdy box and ship it motor freight. Maybe $60 in freight charge. Thanks for your reply, but I need what I asked for..pickup, packing, and shipping. I am in NJ, not Ala. The shipper must do all three things, not just shipping. UPS doesn't pack. UPS stores pack, as in "pack and ship". Having emphasized your needs, you're looking for a local agent to handle the shipping details. You can probably find one on the cheap by posting an ad in the Tuscaloosa (or neighboring) Craigslist. |
