Re: Freight Shipping

cheapest way is to put it in a pick-up truck and take it yourself..... probably 180.00 in gas....

Re: Freight Shipping

If you have time to wait for bids, go to uship.com! I shipped a cal tan autobronzer thru this site and it was a min. of $600 less than the cheapest trucking line I called!

Re: Freight Shipping

When I listed my sunless, I put it under business & industrial and then general freight! I think that is good enough since you later will add the description of tanning bed!

Re: Freight Shipping

I think tanning beds fall under freight class 150.
