[TheForge] Cost of shipping HD stuff?

[Larry Ruebush]

Other trucking companies that you might try that have agents all over the US are-
Landstar-http://www.landstar.com/
Mercer-http://www.mercertown.com/
CRST Malone-http://www.crstmalone.com/
These are just three of the larger owner-operator trucking companies. Sometimes, some of the car carriers will throw something on to finish a load out, if it is going their way.
