In general how can I estimate the cost of shipping a complete machine? Does it go by weight, size, and distance? Can anyone give me examples.

You can go to R&L Carriers website and plug in your information to get a cost.

Classification - Slot Machines are in Class 110.

Weight, size and distance determines cost.

Location - Very rural and larger inner city locations also adds additional cost.

Residential Delivery is an additional cost.

Some carriers charge for liftgate service.

If you know someone with an account with a common carrier they will probably receive some type of discount. The more they ship the better the discount.

try dbshankier or fedex  R&L brakes your games and will not pay you back for damaged item its been a year and no payment from them good luck

As RMS mentions .. Knowing how to package an item correctly is very important to avoid damage.

Thanks for the replys. I got a zip code cost estimate from R&L and Fedx and it exceeds the value of the machine.

Dan,

Just a side note on shipping if you pick it up at a local terminal
you can save anywhere from $50-150 they charge allot more to drop it off at your door.

if you have an account with the shipping company it's alot cheeper to and if you ship to a bussiness lot cheeper to no lift gate charge or home delivery charge

Hi try Forward air I shipped a machine from Houston to Michigan for $140.00 dollars.You have to  build a box than take it to one of there terminals.The other person has to pick it up at there terminal.
