Selling Large Speakers - How to reduce shipping?


I'm selling my Thiel CS6 that weigh about 200lbs each in their original shipping boxes. I'm looking for help in finding an economical, safe and insured way to ship these speakers within the USA. Both UPS and FedEx have a limit of 150lbs for normal shipping although UPS offers a Freight service that I found to be very expensive ($1000-$1200 to ship from Michigan to Texas or California). The speakers are packed in their original boxes that are 23x17x56 and weigh about 200lbs each. Any suggestions out there? Thanks in advance. Steve

Pilot Air is the best - $230 for speakers 6 feet tall and 175 pounds each. $116 for 50 inch - 105 pound speakers. That is fully insured. No reason to pay upwards of $500 with others. Check out Pilot Air.

I used them at least 6 times with heavy speakers and each time the cost was $115 - $230. Yes, you must ship and pick up from one of their locations.
