shipping jet skis or hulls

[feartheride]

Who is somewhat verse in shipping
Why do they have shipping classes
One company said a lot of things come into play including risk of theft, well they were not even insuring it
You would think just weight a and size would be all that needs to be considered
I have been given 3 different quotes depending on the class they put it under from the same company
Anyone have any new suggestions for inexpensive shipping places
I found a few from searching or recommended by other people that I will try

I've used uship several times. Basically put the info in and they contact you with bids. Have used it for 3 different ski's and once for a boat to moved. Had great prices and never a problem. They have a feedback page so you can check the shipper out. Had one from Cali to North Carolina. Guy was early on delivery.

John carter is great. I've had him ship 2 skis so far and a engine. All three were coast to coast.

Freight class is measured by the weight per cubic foot of package. Not sure what it does in the trucking business though.

Freightquote.com works well.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I did find that some shippers charge a bit much for insurance.
You can buy insurance separate, here are a few I found.
