Default shipping large parts across the states

im looking at buying a new bed for a carryall. I think it will fit on a pallet. it is near the west coast. i am in the middle of the country. is there any way to go about this sensibly or should I just forget about it?


Buyer doesn't want to mess with shipping, its not a high dollar item so he just is selling as picked up item on craigslist. I was hoping to find something to pick it up and bring it to me or some kind of shipping company.


Maybe i should give up on my hopes of a cheap bed to modify

Check out Greyhound package service. They will ship items long distance at reasonable rates. You can save even more by shipping from and picking up at the bus station.

I have never done this because the deal fell through, but I would try it.

I know many guys who have done this with auto body parts such as hoods and bumpers. Pretty viable option IMO.

I havent asked the guy to bundle it up or put it on a pallet or anything, i would be willing to pick it up. My main concern is I dont want to hassle the seller with 1. putting on a pallet 2. getting it to a bus station just for a $100 part. Again, he doesn't say anything about offering shipping or anything and it is sold as picked up. I think I will need a service to do that for me - but I may just message him and shoot my shot

I've tried shipping hotrod parts and it always cost a small fortune. One alternative is make a bed yourself. They are pretty simple. Download some pics and you could knock one out fairly easy. Scrap metal from a salvage yard is usually half the price of new if on a budget.
