I've had great luck with...

companies that make the route.

[Shop-talk] Shipping equipment






I'm probably going to purchase a piece of vintage woodworking equipment 
(shop content), a Millbury tenoner to be exact.  It weighs about 450 
pounds crated, and it's in West Virginia and I'm in the Puget Sound 
area.  I'm going to need to have it shipped, as it's the wrong time of 
year for a 4500 mile road trip.

There have been several references in the past to freight brokerage 
services that in effect take bids on shipping  your goods.  Can anyone 
point me to these businesses?

Thanks
Dave
