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) Roger |

How many batteries? Figure avg 40 lbs a battery. A concern for whatever company that you use it will be considered a Hazardous Material so may be a surcharge there as well. It also limits what else they can carry on the same loaded and how its loaded depending on how they are packaged.
