A family member is being gifted a pallet, or more, of large lead/acid 12V batteries.

Greyhound doesn't ship hazardous materials.
UPS, FedEx,... will ship for an arm and a leg.

All ideas are greatly appreciated. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I feel your pain, Cap'n
I applaud your comittment to the cause
and from what I see almost daily in Corporate America,
I fear the North Sea may win----

Can't hurt to try though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Spelling, punctiation, and grammar are all intertwined.

I suck at this, but I married an english major who is an editor..so she helps me when I have to send out something important.
