    from CO to Chicago and then back to CO or CO toward AZ?
    I'm cornfuzed...

    We should start a betting game on "what date will the Borbets arrive in AZ"...

    Thumbs up

    This is a great plan, and solves all of your shipping concerns. I am glad we have this resource of cool people to make things like this happen. The wheels are ready to go. Now... let's get them headed West!
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    oh, I see. I sure got that all wrong ....I thought you were talking about Denver to Chicago and back.

    Oh well, back to the drawing board....

    Anybody have any other ideas for the Chicago to Denver leg ??

    Some options now-

    The UPS Store - get them to pack and ship, do it all.
    Cheapest to do box for each.

    If UPS shipped TO A BUSINESS:
    Chicago - Denver: $31 + $8 for packaging material=$39 total each box
    Chicago - Dewey: $41 + $8 = $49 total per box

    So it saves about $40 total.....and since we can't find a way to get them relayed to Denver,
    it's probably worth just having The UPS Store do it all, make the box, pack, and ship directly to my town (neighbor has a biz).

    Greyhound is $53 per box, wether to Denver or Dewey.

    Thanks everybody for all your help!

    If anybody has any other suggestions, please share.
