i had very little to ship. When going through the shipping process and having to select categories my shipment would be under alright with me, HOWEVER, it does not accomedate everyones needs. my things were under general house hold things. the only category i could put it under was under "small one bedroom apartment", when really it was all soooo much less then that. but because that was the smallest category i could choose, it automatically put me up in the $450-500 range. Even upon delivery my shipper told me "had i known it was this little amount, then i would have charged less". this obviously price wise,would have been better for me and he also would have been able to utilize more of his truck space.
