Shipping parts

[X.l.r.8]

Any one know the cheapest way to have an item picked up (seats) and delivered to my UPS drop box. The distance is substantial (Capitola to Lewiston) but I know it can't be cost prohibitive.

Look into Greyhound here. The idea behind their shipping program is that they have passenger busses driving from depot to depot already so if they have extra cargo space, why not use it for larger freight items.

last time I looked they require you to drop them off, unfortunately they require picking up. I’ll have a look in a bit and hope that’s changed

Yeah, that sounds right. I believe the items need to be dropped off at a depot and I believe they have specific crating/size reqs to adhere to. You'll also then need to pick the items up at the receiving depot. I'm sure they probably offer door-to-door for an addl. fee but then you might as well just do standard freight. Mind you, I haven't used them myself but on some of the old ICE boards I used to frequent, Greyhound always came up as a good option for big bulky stuff like seats, fenders, engine blocks, trannies, etc.
