Try some of the major freight cariers. i got ups freight to deliver mine. You can get a home delivery from a truck and they will make sure it has a liftgate on the back. Mine came on a pallet and I just used the drivers pallet jack to bring it into the shop. Was about 480 to my door.

^^ this

a little less if you had it dropped at a business (Fed-Ex, for example) and picked it up yourself.

I've always used R&L trucking. Sent last block and crank from NC to OH for $127. That's on a company account, but before the discount it was like $150
