Shipping speakers

I would think it would be just as cheap to rent a U Haul and drive them to the destination if you consider shipping and insurance charges from a third party. I figure it couldn't be much more than 400 miles from MD to RI but I've never been to either state. At 200 miles an hour it would only take a couple of hours to get there.

Wow, that is one fast U-Haul ... ;-)

I have used UShip with good results.

Definitely don’t use UPS. It’s guaranteed they will damage your speakers and then string you along several months until they 100% screw you out of any payment towards fixing the damage they caused out of sheer employee apathy. I’m still soured and this happened to me several months ago :).

Speaking of UPS, a tangential story.

Somebody was sending me a package, and they chose UPS. So I arranged for pickup at the UPS center, instead of having it ride around in a hot truck all day.

So the website showed they opened at 9 a.m., which was great! I got there a few minutes after 9, the parking lot was empty. There was a big sign in the window, "We don’t care what the website says, we don’t open until 10." I couldn’t sit around for an hour waiting for them, so the 16 mile round trip to their place was wasted, and I had to go back in the afternoon, another 16 mile round trip.

So as parker65310 is still soured after several months, I’m still soured after a couple of years. I’ve never used UPS after that.
