BAX Global

what is the senders zip and recievers zip?

weight?

dimensions?

i just ran some numbers: 500 pounds, 48x36x36, residential pickup and delivery, $5000 declared value.

i could ship it from dallas to LA by tuesday morning for about $1300. or monday, april 3rd for about $300.

these are just generic figures though. and you may need to find a way to get the crate on the truck or they will charge you to do it.

Fedex and UPS are about 4-5 times more expensive.

I use DHL cause with our corporate account I get a decent discount. IIRC shipping my F20B engine for my accord back in the day was about 250 and same for shipping my transmission to tx 2 day air delivery

I would never send a hood with them again. I sent a hood and it was banged to hell and back, but they did a good job on the motor and tranny

:werd: My buddy uses DHL hoods for his shipping for his company, and they used to crack a good number of VIS Hoods.
