Freight for large heavy items. Do you have a pickup truck or trailer to get them?

Have them shipped from CA via ground freight. Ask that they strap the wardrobe box to a pallet for forklift use. Ask for dock pickup and when the freight company calls, go pick them up at the freight company. A lot of the cost is getting them from loading docks onto a truck that can get around in a neighborhood. And the lift gate and the delivery driver.

I have gone to the freight lines terminal and pulled in next to 18 wheelers and had the forklift drop the box in the pickup.

It is still expensive. The other choice for door to door delivery is FedEx freight.
