Hi guys,
I'm trying to send an E92 rear bumper from NJ to CA. Who do you guys think is the cheapest company to go through? I tried GreyHound Express, but they said the box is too big. Any indeas? Thanks!

I've shipped a front bumper through UPS in a very large box before for around $100. That was about a year ago so figure a few more dollars. You can also use roadway for large packages, but the problem is that you need to have what you are shipping on a skid, and it wouldn't be worth it for a bumper IMO.

Thanks, I will try UPS Freight... Any other suggestions...?

I just did a quote on UPSFreight.com, and I got a quote of $312 from NJ to CA. Could that be correct? I'm actually not sure what "Freight Class" I am. I'm shipping a rear bumper (L 80 W24 H37). I put in class 300, does that sound right? If anyone can help me out, I would really appreciate it. I'm really looking for the cheapest way to ship this out...
