I spoke with Big Al and he is willing to get them to you at MME.
Email me when you get a chance so we can discuss.  I can give you me toll free number so we can talk.

The company I work for uses ESTES for International  - LTL (less than Truckload) freight shipments  Within North America.  Mexico.

100% Crate them, In wood.  and Securely package All on a pallet / Skid

Then Call Estes with the Weight + Dimensions for the skid- and they can provide full Door to Door quote.

UPS could handle the shipment too- but will likely transfer over to YRC = As UPS Owns YRC. and is A Ok too- Both are LTL truckload specialists.

I actually did send a set of doors from here in CA down to Cal.

I sent them via Purolator I believe.....but was so long ago now I can't remember how much it cost.

Simply had them wrapped in cardboard with cardboard between......and lots over the glass

Any thoughts on how to ship a set of Aussi doors and associated parts from Canada to California?
