Shipping-whats the best way?

[chasiubao]

I have some parts I'll be selling in the near future and wanted to get some guidance on what the best way to get it to someone would be. That being said the items are.

1. Basic IS spoiler
2. Possible plastic bumpers
3. Set of Sport seats
4. Rims/tires

Bulky stuff basically. I'm learning that USPS parcel post is my friend after taking a hit and not asking first. Any input would be appreciated. I'm sure others may want to know as well.

I strapped 5 wheels and tires on a pallet and yellow freight shipped them from TN to VA for like ~$50. Might be more now though, seems like every time I ship something freight, the fuel surcharge goes up.

thanks for the input

It does seem like shipping/mailing in general things have gone up. May be all fuel related dunno. Any other useful hints?

www.shipgreyhound.com has been pretty cheap for me with bulky items. Only downside is that you need to drop the item off at the nearest depot, and the recipient needs to pick it up at their nearest depot. I shipped a rear seat for $47 though, when Fedex/DHL/UPS wanted $180+.
