SD Has anyone ever shipped GLH sideskirts and front air dam?

2005-06-20 Thread Howard and Sherri
I've got a real nice set I'm planning to sell but wow is it long.  Has 
anyone ever shipped a set? and was there anything special about the box? or 
extra fees?

Thanx,
Howard

When I was shipping Shadow bumper covers I discovered large bulky objects
can be a challenge to ship affordably. First off use Fed Ex and go directly
to their main location if at all possible. They're going to measure it via a
limit of a certain amount of cubic inches (side x width x height, etc).

You'll have no room to spare on these so boxing them up is not an option.
What you do to keep the size to a minimum is to cover them in bubble wrap
from end to end. You can buy a roll of the small bubble stuff at Office
Depot along with the clear packaging tape. You may have to ship the sides 
front separate to meet the size criteria. Also if you go during a busy day
(with lots of people in line) they're less likely to notice (or care) if
it's slightly oversize.

Keep in mind that GLH parts are extremely flexible and relatively light
weight, so I think that you shouldn't nee much for shipping materials
except a simple box and some bubble wrap.

Greyhound has a decent freight service.  UPS, FedEx, USPS and DHL all
have size and weight limits.

Re: SD Has anyone ever shipped GLH sideskirts and front air dam?

2005-06-20 Thread Eric .
I see that my reply only went to howard, so I'll post up my experience
here for all to read:
Ship Greyhound! Once something goes over 60 FedEx basically doubles
or triples the charge. Plug in a 59 long package, a 60 long package
and a 61 long package in their rate calculator, you'll see! I just
shiped a rear bumper (62x14x28) from FL to CA on Greyhound for $32!

I also recently shipped a header panel and lower valance from a
Thunderbird Turbo Coupr for $38 from FL to DC, FedEx wanted $210,
because f it's size. Greyhound allows up to 84 one direction, ad
100lbs per delivery. I've shipped a complete interior via Greyhound
for VERY cheap.

Re: SD Has anyone ever shipped GLH sideskirts and front air dam?

2005-06-20 Thread Victor Lehtinen
I shipped a GLH front airdam from Connecticut to the
midwest via UPS.
It cost $96.00 United Parcel Service.
I constructed my own cardboard box with $10 worth of
clear package tape.
The sideskirts were much cheaper to ship.
