Eric,

It will have to fit in one of the compartments under the bus. They do have overall size and weight limits.
Call:
Greyhound PackageXpress
(800) 739-5020
7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m., CST weekdays

Describe what you want to do and they'll answer all your questions. They did for me.

Oh, here: http://www.shipgreyhound.com/

What are your package weight and size restrictions?
The maximum weight per package is 100 pounds. The extreme measurements of length, width, and height shall not exceed 30" x 47" x 82".

Amtrak Express is something like 1/2 the cost of UPS.

yes the best way is Amtrak

That was very helpful.

I have used GH here in CA for shipments within the state. What continues to blow me away is the timing. It's there the same day!

GH brought me a roll BAR from New England. But it was knocked down flat. Something like $50 for crossing the entire US. Try that with UPS :D

Service is adequate to excellent. Depends on whom you get on the phone. No uniformity.
