How to have a Rear-End picked up? (shipping)

Can someone tell me the best way of having a complete drum to drum rear picked up in Miami, FL 33186 and shipped to Rockville, MD 20850. What kind of expense will this be? From Resident to loading dock (job site)

I'd have them band it to a pallet & truck freight.

Thats about the only way I know of. usually takes two pallets with 2x4's nailing them together because it hangs over the pallet. We deal with many parts places in Dallas and as far away as Oklahoma on large parts. Being business to business can reduce shipping some. We have paid anywhere from 80.00 to 130.00 on shipping rear ends. More for the larger truck rears above 1 ton.

Call your local airport to see if FORWARD AIR flies from your location to your destination. I inquired about shipping a 6 bolt drum rear end from Charlotte NC to Miami and I believe the price was quoted at $80.00
