wrap it in carpet padding and shrink wrap. the major shipping companies should be reasonable for ground shipping depending on how fast you want it and how far away it is. hope that helps

Where is shipping from? I use Golden State overnight for my wine shipments in California. They move general cargo also, have used them to ship Diff Skids. If you need to, let me know and we can arrange to ship it under my account as I do not remember if you have to have one. They are cheaper the Fedex or UPS and are overnight.

My brush gaurd came "too" well packed from arb, was sitting on a crate box with formed foam inside a box that was tough as well to open up. Carpet and shrink wrap are prob the safest/cheapest way to do it.
