Best shipping companies

@referee1

Getting involved in shipping just gets you part (or all) of the blame if there is a problem.

pay for insurance on the parcel, call the shipping company after you have a tracking number - explain to them it’s a pair of speakers and should be handled with care. call them again once the parcel reaches the next stage - on its way to you.

i can’t tell you how many times delivery drivers asked me: so what’s in here?

with speakers (especially large speakers) it would be obvious. it’s always good having reassurance. how much do the speakers weigh?

in my experience, DHL and FEDEx are really good.

Packed in original carton they weigh around 185 lbs each

 Have them shrink wrapped and palletized and ship them freight. 

What winoguy said. You don't want to deal with shipping damage, it is a hassle.

Agree with winoguy. You can also save a lot of money if the seller drops off the speakers at the freight terminal at a major airport and the buyer picks them up at the freight terminal on the other end. Most of the cost is the local delivery between terminal and local address.
