I just shipped 400lbs of speakers via pallet from North Carolina to Washington. I used FreightCenter which found the best price for me and prepared all the paperwork. It cost about $550 and included a lift gate on the receiving end. Having FreightCenter prepare the Bill of Lading and determine the cost in advance was a huge help. Even the shipping company was relieved when they saw everything was in order when I arrived at their shipping terminal.
Need Freight Company to Ship Amps on a Pallet
Hi Everyone,
I really need help and advice finding a company who can ship a pair of amps strapped to a pallet and charge a reasonable rate. This has been quite a challenge so far. The amps are going from Oklahoma City to Tacoma, Washington. Both parties are willing to transport the amps to and from a freight depot in both locations so door to door is not necessary.
If you can share some approximate costs that you have experienced shipping your equipment on a pallet with "to and from" information, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your time and advice

I recently used FreightCenter to ship 400 lbs. of speakers from Raleigh, NC to Atlantic City, NJ and the cost was around $500, but it included a lift gate at both ends and $10,000 worth of insurance. This was over 1/2 the cost of UPS or Fedex and they wouldn't do door to door like FreightCenter did. The representative I worked with was very professional and reassuring. Her name is Nicki McClintock and she can be contacted at: (800) 716-7608 Ext. 1142. After providing me with a firm quote and shipping ID, she directed me to their website and I took it from there. FreightCenter provided all the shipping documents (Bill of Lading and address labels), but just be sure to hand the BOL to the driver and tape the address labels to the boxes. The buyer said everything went smooth at his end and the speakers arrived undamaged. I highly recommend FreightCenter! |
