    i have shipped many frames and never had any size issues. use fedex ground and i guarantee anywhere in the country for under 60.00 and the best way to ship them is cover sharp points with cardboard then plastic wrap the whole thing fedex likes it that way and it looks real professional

    I am having success going with ground service at FED EX shipping hub that is by our local airport. The prices are lower than $60 and I dont have to wrap it much more than some tape and a label.

    Oh and someone asked why one doesnt flip it upside down or on its side when they measure the dimension? ...well because they have to weigh it and it would not fit on the scale/ scale area and be a hassle having to flip it this way and that, since it is bulky and the person behind the counter is often not used to that much hassle or work or awkwardness.

    MI to KS = $49
