I’m curious if anyone can recommend a courier service, delivery service or alternative to FedEx and UPS freight services to deliver speakers appropriately 300 to certainly less than 400 miles, safely?

Thank you!
 
I’ve used XPO Logistics. Admittedly, I have the advantage of a corporate contract that I can take advantage of. Service was good and speakers were delivered in good shape. I strapped them to a pallet just as they were delivered to the dealer.
 
UPS has gone way way down in my opinion. I would only ship FedEx or one of the Logistics companies now. Radiant Logistics is a decent one.

Thank you

I’ll look these up. Please keep the names coming.
 
UPS (ground) delivered my new speakers from Volti. My new Ayon player was delivered by FEDEX, both were in perfect shape. You could try uSHIP or a courier. The good thing about a courier is you can meet them, see them loaded and know they are going straight (hopefully anyway) to the buyer. Good luck.

Hi Joe,

What are you selling it buying?

Not 100% sure yet. A friend was asking for help selling an old pair of infinity kappa (?). I forgot the model and he has no boxes or anything. His old van is something I would not personally trust. Last thing I want is to be stuck on the road. He does not participate on the forums.
 
There are also freight agencies, like Freightquote, who can get you quotes from multiple carriers and also help you with figuring out your shipment specifications and what you need to do if you've only used UPS and FedEx before. Some additional overhead of course.
