Shipping wheels?

[BigClay]

I have a set of four wheels that a guy in Atlanta is interested in buying. These are not expensive wheels; therefore, it is not worth my time to travel to deliver. So what are some ways I can ship them? Do they have to go on a pallet?

2 or 4 UPS boxes. If they are aluminum, it might not be so bad.

Well, unless they are 24" or 28" wheels. You did say Atlanta...

Print and slap a label directly to the wheel. I believe tires get shipped in a similar fashion if they are small enough.

I guess check the size dimensions allowed. If it fits it ships!

Shrink wrap the wheels and slap a shipping label on them.

They are 30" spinnazs...

These were $50/wheel to ship from Cali through UPS...but I’m pretty sure half of that was a ‘carboard causes cancer tax’...

But these wheels (less TSL’s) still cost me $40/wheel from Wisconsin...through Greyhound...

UPS or Fedx in boxes. I just had a wheel shipped to me, shipping was in the range of $15

YRC freight. I would about guarantee I could ship them from YRC terminal (kville) to Atlanta terminal for $100 or less ($90-100 likely).

I've done it before. About 15 years ago I shipped 4 aluminum rims. I bought some threaded rod and some nuts and big washers. I used some left over 2x6 and the hardware I bought to bolt them together. Then I used some cardboard to roll around them and taped it up. Guys said they showed up in good shape. Still can't believe it worked.
