savageskaterkid Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I have looked all over, and it seems as though I will have to buy an S30 out of state. And was wondering, the shipping for a car is quite expensive, about 700 dollars to get it shipped about 550 miles, does this seem right? Does anybody know of a cheaper method? Ps, I kind of need to know quick, by monday.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some-Guy Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 check to see what it costs via train 700$ for 550 miles is about right we had a machine shipped 500 miles and it cost 1200$ via truck (was about the size of a car) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Maudlin Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 I paid $900 for one from Oregon to near Louisville, KY. The high price was due to the transport not being from terminal to terminal. I had it shipped door to door and the car was 2 hours from the terminal in Oregon and I was approximately 1 hour from the terminal in Indiana.

savageskaterkid Posted February 25, 2006 Author Share Posted February 25, 2006 So getting it shipped to a terminal is cheapest? What company should I use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwik240z Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Might be cheaper to fly out and drive it back or rent a truck and trailer. Road trips can be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageskaterkid Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 I wish, but I don't like planes, and I don't have time. And all the money I have for a car is all the money I have, not much to play around with shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
