Shippers

Anyone have any good contacts for moving equiptment?

Have a milling center in Jersey, that I need to get to Arkansas.

Figured I'd check with you guys before going the uShip route.

We ship machine tools all the time. Get quotes from different trucking companies. How big is the milling center, does it have a pallet changer? Once it arrives, you'll need a rigging company to unload it. Most commercial buildings have a 5" thick concrete floor, does it require a special foundation?

It's relatively light. 10,000lbs. Floor is my shop is made for heavy equipment, no issues there. One of my good friends owns a rigging service. He unloads and moves all of my equiptment into place. The university it is at has the equiptment to set it on a trailer. I just need it driven to me.

I've put in a few calls to friends who are freight brokers. See how it goes I suppose. Time to get back to the blackjack table and booze for now.

have them stop by my place and pick up the gl500 on the way
