    If you need it ASAP...you better try FED EX or UPS...some LTL carrier will be your best option. To try and arrange for it to be "included" as another pick-up point from some individual will get tricky and not very time sensitive...if you get my drift.
     
    Texas-Nana Thanks this.

    Try one of the many expedite companies. Fed Ex CC Panther Bolt Load 1 express 1 Tri State. Call and see if they have a truck or team close by

    Well you could always call Swift transportation. They could do it as a time sensitive load. Just a thought. *smiles angelically and wanders back off not mentioning that's who I work for, pauses* there's other companies too.

    Thanks for your help guys. Fedex will charge way too much and I don't think I'll find anyone to drive on the weekend on such short notice. My husband says he'll fly out there and put it on a box truck and drive it out here himself. Ummm......

    I'll have to make some calls in the morning to some of the companies you've recommended.

    GOOD POINT....I don't think about the expedited groups for some reason...just not quite used to that aspect of our industry yet.:biggrin_25514:

    (I put some commas in there for you!)

    Call one of the carriers. Swift, Schneider etc. I have no idea what they'll charge but they'll get there.

    Let's see now...one way air fare, no reservation, one way rental, fuel, two nights motel......

    and Fed Ex will cost too much?

    Now that's funny....I don't care who you are....that's funny!:biggrin_25525:
     
    Texas-Nana, Big Red and Brickman Thank this.
