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.

Hey nice rack! -Celette Group: Members Posts: 20,836 Joined: 30-December 02 From: Now in Superior WI Member No.: 43 Region Association: Northstar Region |
Question:
Are the batteries new? Are they name brand? Instead of the actual batteries, could the gift're (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) give you the equal amount of cash for the batteries and your Maryland person could just purchase the batteries in Maryland? Could you sell the batteries where your located and send your Maryland person the check to purchase batteries in Maryland? Can we find another way to torment the Captn with incorrect english and or spelling ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) |

Many people have suggested renting a van and driving . . . is out-gasing a concerned when a ton of batteries are in an enclosed space?

I know this guy won't sell the batteries for us. But to maybe strike a deal with a local Teener friend, in Maryland, to cash out the batteries and purchase them new in Cali. Might be a better way to go. Little cash made for the friend in Maryland and a little made here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I've never been the antagonist type. It's just not in me. =) |
