INFORMATION:

Greyhound will ship large awkward items on the cheap. Quoted $68 to ship a front bumper cover from Vegas to Chicago. The catch is, they do not always have room, so you might have to wait a week or so for the item to get shipped. Max insured value is $300. So i would suggest using a 3rd party to insure packages over this value.

Hope this helps out those needing to part out big stuff.

Yeah I had a bumper shipped greyhound about 10 years ago. It arrived okay.

Call them ahead of time. Bad experience here. First, about twice that price to ship a bumper from Florida to New York, then when I showed up, they were running optional hours, not open, in a really crappy section of town. I showed up at 10:00 am on a Tuesday.

They also had some really weird exclusions on car parts and damage.

There are brokers that will pick it up for you, that are only a few dollars more. That is what I will use if I need to do it again.

Shipped a hood via greyhound only cost me 60 bucks (about 2 years ago) I even went to my local body shop and they gave me a large Silverado hood box that I shipped it in. That in itself is worth it.

Yup! ... as soon as I find a buyer for my MSP replica that has already been fitted properly, I'm gonna stop by the local dealer's body shop for a box for it :-D

If you all have success with this, please share. My last attempt was a nightmare. Did not think about body shop for box, actually built a crate and took a day off work to deliver.
