2 Tractors from Oregon to Ohio

I am needing 2 Silver King tractors shipped from Oregon to Ohio. These tractors each weigh 2500 pounds and have a 4 ft by 8 ft footprint. I have attached a picture of one.

Curious to see what kind of prices you get. I would think the cost to ship might exceed the value of the tractors.

3 days and 2500 miles.....and if no backhaul available another 3 days 2500 miles to get back home....

I'm not a shipper or hotshot guy....but I do haul some equipment around for locals. $2/mile (both ways) is what I get. Using my "local" price that's make it about $10,000 to ship

I would try U-Ship, and be patient, waiting until bidders hash the price out among themselves, (competing) for up to 2 weeks.
I would expect the cost to be less than 40% of the WAG above, as part of a combined U-Ship load.

It might help if you could narrow the tires enough so that they'd fit side by side in a trailer... rather than a 4'x16' footprint make it 8'x8'.
I had never heard of them until this post. They seem to have been pretty good machines in their day. Apparently Henry Ford bought a couple, just to tear down and see how they were built. He supposedly said "They were the best on the market at the time but had the worst marketing program of any company."
