The shipper is Forwardair. Their web site is www.forwardair.com and they
have depots in Clealsea, Ma and across from Bradley Airport in Ct. I
shipped a large crate of MG parts from the Ct location. Great bunch of
folks. They only accept MO's though. There is a DB Mart down the street
that they send you to in order to purchace the MO.
