    Do it yourself on the DOT website.

    You can do everything yourself except for the BOC-3 Filings and posting an OR bond......

    Do it all yourself. Do yourself a favor and join OOIDA.
    Your BOC-3 filing is free from them.

    I used Evilsizor and his price is $395 + $30 for the BOC-3 which included the $300 gov. fee. It seemed reasonable but I really think you could do it yourself. I thought it was more complicated than it really is.

    You're right, it's not that complicated. Just have to make sure you get stuff done in the correct order!
