Hello all,
I was referred here by a friend.

I looking for shipping solutions for shipping a metal working tool from
another state to me.

The unit will be on a pallet and about 250lbs.

Looking for a reliable, easy to work with, resonable shipper.

Thanks

Forward Air is not easy to work with, but they can save you some money.
Yellow Freight is very easy to deal with and reasonable. I would definitely
check freightquote and maybe look for other shipping brokers as well.

You've run into one of my (and many others...) pet peeves. I know this has
been brought up before, but, when you ask for advice about services,
supplies, machines or whatever might be available, please tell us where you
are. Many of us have had experiences with various shippers and are more
than willing to help. But experience with, say, a West Coast regional
shipper moving something from California to Utah doesn't have much
applicability if you are in Florida...

"forwardair.com" You will have to deliver the pallet to their office and the
receiver pick it up but thay are prompt and reliable.

I used Yellow Freight once and found them very accomodating. I
thought they were reasonable too, though I didn't shop it much.

As it happens, I was both shipper from Michigan and recipient near
Minneapolis, so I saw how they work on both ends. I would use them
again.

Hi,

I don't mean to start an argument but why do you request that your
contributions to this discussion group not be archived.

It is well within your right to not have it archived but I think you do
both us and yourself a disservice by not allowing your messages to be
archived.

Your advice contained within this message is a perfect example of what
I am talking about.. It is good advice and I or anyone else may have a
question on this same subject in the future. When your message is not
archived, that advice is lost to those in the future who use this group
as a reference...much as you have. As I read your thread discussing the
large transformer, I think about how useless that discussion will be in
the future when your portion of the discussion disappears. It is like
taking a book and removing pages at random...it renders the book
useless. Please reconsider your "No Archive" setting...you have much to
offer those who will be looking for guidance in the future when they
read these discussions..

Thanks for considering my request.

But they only accept money orders and you don't know the exact total until
you bring the item to their office. Most sellers don't want to go through
that. They can be cheap, but Yellow is a lot more flexible.
