Title: Best Company For Shipping Arcade Games??
Post by: old school gamer on August 09, 2004, 12:51:00 pm

Ive been looking for a company to ship full size cabs. Most people selling them dont provide shipping info. Fed Ex and UPS say its to heavy. Can anyone suggest a Company that they have had luck using. And a rough idea on the price. Thanks

A lot of people use Beltman,North American Van Lines because you dont have to palletize it. I just sold a game and they are going to pick it up tomorrow. From Dallas to Calfornia is only $262.57.  Heres the number for a quote : 1-800-959-8800 (ask for Michelle). Ask for a quote on blanket-wrap shipping of an arcade game. I believe the price is the same for one or two games and I know that insurance is included ($5/lb).

Won't the game be confused by the time difference?

If you can get the cab to and from the air freight terminals on both end, Forward Air is another reasonable choice.
