It would be best to use a freight carrier like Yellow Trucking and ship from hub to hub.

That's what I found out years ago, it should be true now.

expect to pay between 300-500 dollars... the fuel surcharge and oversize fee is horrible. It has to be loaded on 2 pallets since it hangs over one.

Get a shipping pallet for a snap on roll away they are narrow and long. than go to harbor freight and get the 3-4 2 dollar ratcheting ties. tie it down and then cellophane it. after that check freightquote.com or forward air

Make it in the bigs and you'll have a great chance. Maybe not the exact model, but comparable.
