Who has experience shipping large speakers?

Stay away from USF. I just had a bad experience with them.

I had a great experience with Yellow Freight (www.myyellow.com). If you can drop off the speakers at a Yellow terminal and get the buyer to pickup the speakers at a Yellow terminal you can get a 40% "yes discount" but you have to specifically ask for it. I've found the biggest concern with the freight companies is insurance! You need to specifically ask each freight company how they insure your speakers & tell them the speakers are not brand new. I've found some companies will only insure by the pound, which isn't enough insurance. Goto their website and call them up for a quote. It's actually pretty simple and wasn't that stressful for a newbee like myself. I've used them two times and each time Yellow used a forlift to remove the speakers from my truck and load them up for free. Good Luck

BAX Global has been recommended to me too for a deal that never ended up happening. Good luck - Arthur

Shipping your large speakers is very complicated. I suggest you call your local high end store (maybe several stores) and ask them who they use. You might want to call the speaker mfg and ask them what shipping company they use. You may also have to pay extra money for packaging and wooden pallets to ensure the speakers arrive okay. This is going to be expensive but very important for the speakers to arrive with no damage. cheers...

Try contacting a moving company. A local, reliable one that has a truck going in that direction should be glad to take it and they will treat it like furniture, not freight. RELIABLE is the operative word. Ask around.
