The only problem with Grayhound is that passenger luggage will always take priority. This will impact you more if shipping large boxes. I once shipped a huge box full of FG parts and it took over a month for the buyer to receive them. I was shipping from Ca to MI and somewhere in route they decided to pull my package to make room for luggage. There's no tracking when this happens so your package will be left off at whatever GH station they managed to leave it at. I filed a missing package report and heard nothing for close to 6 weeks and was ready to refund the guy which would have been a huge loss, but at the last minute they found it sitting at the station mid-trip and reloaded. It all worked out in the end but its something to be aware of. I also remember them asking for identifying marks and a detailed description of the box so I would suggest labeling it somehow as a way to easily identify and take a few pics in case something goes sideways. Its a closed system so they really cant lose the items but they may end up in a warehouse with hundreds of other non descriptive boxes. That said, I used GH many times prior to that incident and it only happened once. The larger the box the more likely it may be pulled to make room for luggage, but with Covid going on at the moment it may not be as much of an issue. Good luck.
