Could someone tell me how to ship Brush Guards and Running Boards?

I have a Brush Guard and a pair of running boards for a Disco1 and do not know how to ship it if someone wants it at a distance from me.

UPS ground will work. Just make sure you pack it well and insure it. Forward air may be cheaper, but you will have to band it to a skid.

I used Greyhound buses for my brushguard actually.. It was $60 from upstate NY (Canadian border) to NJ.. which is pretty far.. the previous owner just wrapped it up in bubble wrap and it was fine.

Ryan,
Did you just take it to some Greyhound station and load it up? Or do they have a service where you can drop it off and they do the transporting?

I actually recieved the package, basically I just had to go to a greyhound station and they had it in a back room there. I think you can just bring it to a greyhound station and they'll load it up for you.. check out http://www.shipgreyhound.com/

Im actually shipping a brushguard via Greyhound tommorrow morning. Never used them before, but seems to be a cheaper alternative to UPS, etc.

I've used greyhound several times to ship a D90 hood, brushguard, and to receive both a hood and brushguard (should have planned all that better!)

It is definitely the most economical way to ship and quick as well- it was less than 2 days to receive both items and the ones I sent out I only had to wrap some bubble wrap around.

Recommended, but make sure the receiver has a Greyhound station nearby...
