Fastenal has been known to move palletize or crated tractors and accessories across the country for reasonable rates. Definitely seems like you really need to have a good contact in that company. Also need to be knowledgeable on your own part about which Fastenal locations accept freight that large. @PWL216 has used Fastenal and had good experience. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 9,590 #4 Posted July 15 (edited) I've previously used Fastenal a few years ago. The seller has to be able to drain fluid and strap it on a pallet. Some say their rates have gone up so I'm not sure their still a viable service. But I still see a fair amount of old car fenders and hoods moving through my local Fastenal Edited July 15 by oliver2-44 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PWL216 883 #5 Posted July 15 (edited) @Junkyard_sal I recently paid $265 to have a tractor shipped from Chicago to Boston via Fastenal. As @oliver2-44 mentioned, there’s work could to be done by the seller. They need to drain the fluids and strap it to a pallet, and then deliver it to the Fastenal location.
