Two ways would be to got to your local Fastenal or maybe Greyhound..
Fold it up into one of those "if it fits, it ships" boxes. duh
I assume you’re talking about these guys? Engine Shipping | Transmisson Shipping and more.I've shipped engines all over for a third of commomn carrier.
Hassle free for shipper as I crate it and drop it off. The buyer makes all the shipping arangements and pays for the shipping when they pick it up.
Takes a littke longer as it floats through their store supply lines, but much cheaper.
They have a division that is dedicated just to private individuals shipping on their trucks.
I've used them over and over. No complaints.
Call and duscuss it with them and they'll tell you a quote and how they want it packed to protect you and them. You can ship an Engine open, on a pallet, but they won't take responsibility for damages unless it's crated.
Just have to call and do a little research, but I highly recommend them.
