Slightly OT: How do I ship via Greyhound?

I've been on eternal hold, only to be given a wrong number for "GPX", which is supposedly their shipping div. No mention whatsoever on their website. How do I line up a bulky shipment with them? Thanks.

Wrap it in bubblewrap and bring it to the station

Thanks. I think I found a special website for GPX, which is not at all mentioned on Greyhound's main site. No list of which stations accept shipments and I'm trying to avoid a long drive to one I know for sure takes them.

That's the station I didn't want to drive to. It's nowhere near Fairfax. I live in Fairfax. Anyway, I'll get it done. Thanks.

I've used them a lot on larger bulky items, hoods, fenders, etc. I personally can't complain about their service luckily there is a depot about four miles from my house. Savannah to Austin in less than 24 hrs, the downfall is which depot handles shipments though otherwise good service.
