Looking for hauler

[SC69DART]

Im not sure where to post this but I am looking for someone to pick up an engine in Clarksville, Tn. 37042 and bring it to Clover, SC 29710. If someone knows who I should contact regarding this or would like to make a few bucks and don't mind driving a little, please let me know.
The engine will be ready anytime after Dec 17th.

Thanks,

Greg

This is best in the general discussion area and not spammed all over the board. LOL I have it there now. Good luck with this.

if you are getting engine from a businessor having one built you need to have it shipped by a common carrier like AAA Cooper, Yellow Frt or any DOT carrier or else you will have to pay taxes if picked up by individual. This will amount to more than the shipping cost. I ran into this when I had Hensley build my 499 stroker for my 67 GTS, Joe

I have no idea what distance is involved, but I have had success using a towing company - they do get around.

Used them dozens of times, just strap it on a pallet and they pick it up and door to door service or terminal shipping. I thought they had good prices for the level of service.
