Not possible for you to pick it up?

You might get those "pros" on TV to haul it for you.

Little off topic but does anyone know any good part sights that ship from Canada to Canada? New or used, because things like boxs for me would be redicoulous to ship across the border.

Please start your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's. Otherwise people start responding to you and the OP never gets the help he needs.

I have used Uship. I had a box shipped from Tuscon AZ to Sweet Grass MT (Montana, I'm Canadian so not sure if I got that right). It only cost me $350. I drove across the boarder and picked it up.

If it gets shipped common carrier without being protected its likely to get banged up... just as a for instance, I ordered a pallet of huge *** military tires, and by the time the semi delivering them got to my garage out a windy road, the tires had all fallen off the pallet (they were just wrapped in plastic) and they were rolling around the trailer during transit. If your shortbed had been back there, imagine what a few 155 lb tires bouncing back and forth off of it would have done over a few hours.

Good thing about u ship is you can see what equipment they will be using and etc. I think your best bet would be a hotshot or independent that is headed your way and can toss a 400 lb 6' bed on the back of his truck for the ride.
bad news is bluewell is 5 or 6 hours south of me. actually about as far south as you could get and still be in WV.
