Shipping to California

[pressbrake1]

Hello, I’ve got a mad septic who wants to but 3 straight edges off me with a combined weight of 60kg
Has anyone here knowledge/ experience to do this for sensible money?
Thanks

Search for ‘Shipping consolidator’. Not used one for yrs so I cant help with any names.

If individually they are within the requirements for ebay global shipping then the cheapest way to ship them might be to list them in ebay and have him buy them from there.
There was a thread recently about shipping an axle from Australia, had some good links in it

I've used these guys for years shipping some huge sculptures to the USA. Never had a problem.
Their online quote thingy even works.

That’s interesting. I’d like to buy a diff from the states but the shipping would be a killer

Global shipping seems a bit messed up with weights etc

If its air frieght it goes on dimensional weight. So you’ll pay the same for a m/sq box of feather, as the max weight for that area.

If the item is heavier than the DW then you pay a premium

20kg and under is ok for normal air freight, is it worth separating into three packages ? if not send it on the slow boat, may take six weeks or so but its cheap.
