Shipping suggestions/ideas?

Thanks for the ideas an offers to help. I don't know anyone headed to the Nats from PHX at this time. There are plenty of snowbirds that come to AZ when the snow starts flying, that could be a possibility. I also have family in central NY and thought about flying to see them. Then renting a mini van, driving to Mi and then home to AZ, but they really bend you over on a rental when you don't return it to the place where you picked it up. Thanks again for the replies.
