AWW$HEEET Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 From where to where? Probably put it on a pallet and call a shipping co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 From where to where? Probably put it on a pallet and call a shipping co. That is normally the cheapest way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1647545502 Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Use come-alongs or strapping to secure it to the pallet, and cover the whole thing with a tarp or sheet plastic. I see a TON of engines and trans on LTL trucks, and this is usually how they are loaded. Make sure you read over all the policies and fees that the shipping company charges...some of them charge a fee if you can't unload the pallet yourself, and lifting a 300-400 lbs engine down from a semi trailer is NOT a one person job...

Patterson Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 If possible, have it sent to a business with a loading dock. It saves the extra bucks for liftgate service as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bruh Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 I sold my engine and shipped it with one of those online freight companies (I believe they were out of Florida ). And it was 190 to Virginia. They contracted Pitt Ohio to ship it. I called Pitt Ohio to get a personal quote before I paid the company and Pitt wanted 330. I can get the name of the company if u want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
