Default shipping arrangement

I need to ship a set of wheels/tires to the Bay Area from LA
and wonder how much it would cost for ground shipping?

I was quoted at $350~ from UPS but there sure is some cheaper way to do it.
anybody knows any cheaper way to ship them?

$350~ seems way more expensive than I thought. or reasonable?

How much do the boxes weigh?
Dimensions of the boxes?
Do you want them insured?
Zipcode?

I work for an ASO (Authorized Shipping Outlet) for UPS at a local office supply store in the High Desert. $350 sounds awfully high for ground shipping. Reply to this or send me a PM I will try to get to you ASAP.

don't go to an authorized shipping center. go to an actual service counter. and use FedEx ground instead. it's cheaper.
