Re: what shipping companies are better
For me....anything that is under the "freight" catagory, I ship fedex ground. Seems like it was about 30% cheaper than the brown dudes. I do have an account though so that must make a difference.

Fed Ex or Gray hound bus. I've had really good luck with both. Shipped a door cross country on the bus for $30

Re: what shipping companies are better
We have used many. Both Ground and truck freight. You have opened a can of worms when asking which is better
![]() And yes we have used and will use Greyhound as a last resort. They get the stuff their fast but the are so undependable on the front and back side of the process. Plus their drop off locations aren't always dependable. They are cheap however. If the customer requests it we will do it. We have customers that live on Indian Reservations. That is always interesting when doing truck freight Your state is a hard state to ship truck freight to unless its in a larger city. We are shipping a hood there now. LTL was $300.00 some dollars with most companies We finally found one for $179.00 Last edited by mbgmike; 05-25-2010 at 07:40 PM. |
