After lots of dithering, the monitor is secured to a pallet, stretch-wrapped and boxed. I re-listed it on U-Ship and got a very reasonable bid from a LTL (less-than-load) shipper.
Does anyone have experience using a LTL shipper?
Naturally, I'm concerned that this monitor (with CRT in place) might be dropped or speared by a forklift, put at the bottom of a stack of pallets, etc. It is covered by a cardboard box, but it could not survive traveling halfway across the USA at the bottom of a pallet stack.
Not having used U-Ship before, I'm not sure how much you can discuss things with the shipper beforehand (or if that's even possible) . . . .
Thanks!
