Hi guys, always found this forum useful. I have a query regarding shipping. I want to ship rebars/bumpers. The problem I'm facing with shipping companies is oversized parts and some time crazy quotes from them. Can anyone suggest a cheaper way to ship from Ontario to other provinces.
Thanks in advance
