Shipping companies?

Investigating the cost of shipping a compact wheel loader. 13,000 lbs, 19' long by 81" wide. 1,250 miles. Have listed with Uship and on Yesterdays Tractors. Any other suggestions or ideas? Getting bids of around $2100. Fair price? I have never purchased anything like this without seeing it. Has me a little on the worried side.

I occasionally bid on items to haul through uShip. $2100 is reasonable. My high bid would be 2284 and low bid of 2095. If you have not already try to request a trailer with a dovetail. Normally that type of trailer is an equipment mover and has ramps that slide out. Just wait until the end of the auction. I try to communicate with the shipper for exact details so I show up prepared. I only haul in Texas, but whoever hauls for you will have to be DOT and MC registered. Keeping that and cargo insurance up is expensive.

Fly out and check the machine out. Good Luck.
