Shipping downpipe???

[tte]

Im trying th ship a downpipe.
But because the package dimensions exceed the normal allowable limits i will have to ship frieght.
Dimensions are 130" x 30" x 18"

I called UPS frieght and they quoted me almost $200.
For those of you who have shipped downpipe how did u ship it?


Cheers,
Roy

I've used FedEx Ground...DHL may be a bit cheaper.

This is for FEDEX GND.

Package Size and Weight Up to 150 lbs. (for packages weighing 100–150 lbs., please follow the marking heavy boxes guidelines); 108" in length; 165" in length plus girth (L+2W+2H).

My one still would still be too big.

Cheers,
Roy

Your down pipe sounds way too long. 130 inches?? that is over 10 feet long.

A mega mouth titan down pipe will fit in a 48x12x12 and cost me 45 bucks to ship with fed ex.

Well, if your downpipe is really that long, 130 inches..

Grayhound it. Will cost u about $40.

I've shipped full body kits in boxes the size of a big fridge for $50 across the country with them. Shipping times are very quick too, 1-3 days tops. They go by the LB not by size. Basically they can ship anything the size of a 3 person sofa and smaller.

tte...try Uni-Shippers, go to SF and look in the "parts for sale" section, they should be the first stickied thread. They beat all shipping quotes w/ DHL, Fedex, UPS and USPS

Thanks guys.

I will go recheck the dimensions. The dimensions on my note must be wrong.
Could have made a mistake writing down the dimensions.
