Shipping a track

[Twostroke]

I'm selling a track will need to ship it, what's going to be my cheapest option? $?

Never done this before..

Most likely the US postal service. I shipped one a while back via UPS and it was about $ 50 from WA to CO.

i've had mine shipped via greyhound bus, cheapest and fastest.

Sent mine ups, stretch wrapped good and tight 40 for frt.

I also have sent some via UPS. Roll the track as tight as possible and then shrink wrap. The outside dia/cross section measurement makes a difference in the freight charge.

I just shipped a track that weighed 56# in a box from Colorado to Michigan and if you did a comparison on both USPS and UPS websites it was the same down to the dollar. It might be cheaper if you could get it shrink rapped but it would suck if it arrived with a lug torn. Oh it was 62$ buy the way to ship that track. Big track shippers get a big discount because of volume.

last one I shiped was in the mail rolled up tight wraped taped tight 35.00 to michigan

Sent my 16x154x2.25 to TracksUSA (CO to MN) via UPS. $25.

Postal service now will be super spendy dur to size and weight.

Greyhound is the fastest and cheapest but you have to communicate alot with the buyer to make sure he went to the right depot to pick it up. Not as secure as UPS, IMO.
