How much would it cost to ship a drum set?

Question

I want to send my drum set from Michigan to South Carolina. How much would it cost? What would be the best way?

Answer 1

Shipping charges are based on size, weight and location. 1. How much it weighs 2. How much room it takes up on the truck and 3. How far it will travel. If you're going UPS or FedEx, check with them to make sure your box doesn't fall under dim weight, or dimensional weight where the charge is based strictly on the size of the box regardless of the weight. You want to stay as much under that size as possible cause its hella expensive. It mostly goes for very large boxes. Without us knowing numbers 1,2 and 3 we can't tell you how much it's going to cost. We just don't have the capability because we don't know how much it weighs, what size of box you will use and what rate UPS will charge you.
