Shipping via Grayhound Bus?
I've shipped a number of boatanchors via Grayhound bus and never had a
nightmare.
The limitation is it must be shipped and picked-up at a chosen bus depot.
Seemed cheaper and insurance was included.
Any bad stories?
All be well,

A few years ago I shipped a 75A-3. I probably spent $60 on packing
materials. It was double boxed and each box lined with styrofoam
slabs. I forget what it cost for FedEx Ground but the whole cost was
probably way over $100. I didn't like it but what would I have spent
to put it in my car and drive it 1000 miles. Still cheaper to box and
ship.
