I saw this question posted recently in the old forum but, can't find it now. Any tips, suggestions or approximate costs to ship a track within U.S?

Put it in a box. About 18 x 18 x 24, +/-.
30 to 40 bucks in the US. Fed Ex and USPS seem to be the least expensive.

Don't need a box. Just zip tie or wire it up in as tight a ball as you can get and UPS will just wrap it with that clear shrink wrap stuff. Have shipped several this way.
Same here, just wrap it in a ball with zip ties or rope, then shrink wrap it and your good to go. around $40 in the 48.

I havent noticed that but I know when shipping from canada to the u.s. It cost $50 bucks to ship a 146 to me and it took about 2 weeks to get it.

roll it as tight as possible and use strong zip ties thru the track windows.
I usually still put it in a box but you can ship it plastic wrapped too.
and usually for weight and size it is around 40-50

Thanks for the tips. Sounds like zip tie and plastic wrap is the way to go. I would prefer fedex so hopefully they don't require a box. UPS ground may not get there until spring.

Fedex is usually cheaper than UPS

cheaper and faster in my experience - do you know if it has to be boxed for fedex?
Dittos on zip-ties and plastic wrap. You can buy the small rolls of wrap, stick the addy under the last couple wraps and you're good to go. Have also shipped belly pans and skidplates like this with no problems.
Prices were about right, depending on weight of course, Camo Xtremes cost more, shipping to Canuckland seems to be 2 wks. regardless of package size.
