Title: Shipping suggestions from SF Bay area to SoCal (IE)
Post by: gibbous on October 30, 2007, 09:50:39 am

Hi all,

I'm looking for suggestions or references to people or companies who can haul a game from San Jose to either Orange or Riverside counties.  The sender cannot crate and pallet, and has no loading dock, so most freight carriers are out, unless they provide the service themselves.  I already got a quote from Michelle at NAVL, so I'm just shopping.  I also have a very reasonable quote from an outfit called California Overnight, anyone have any experience with them?

Any input is appreciated as I've never done this before!

Thanks!

Let us know what you find out cuz I see all sorts of good deals in Socal.  Some day I might want to ship something up here. (North Bay)

That's funny because I see more deals in NorCal!  There would be three or four games running down to me if I had the cash!   :P

Ok, you buy the stuff I want and I'll buy the stuff you want and once a year we'll trade. LOL  :cheers:

I've become more picky lately.  Um, yeah that means out of cash right?

Seems like everything turns up again, if you're looking for a long enough period of time!

My Tempest cabaret is with my uncle in SJ for now until we can figure something out.  I'm toying with posting my shipment on uShip.com, prices seem pretty decent over there....
