Just do an online search of all the truck freight places and compare prices. I think I've used BAX in the past. Band it to a pallet, cover in plastic, and you are good to go. Oh, and drop it off at their terminal. That saves quite a bit on fees. Also helps if the receiver is a business as well. They like to deal with loading docks.

It's going to look like any other 5 liter block.

uship.com looked interesting to me, but I haven't used them yet as the underlying deal kind of twisted at the end and I decided to pass on it. First bids were nothing special, but as the ship date got closer the final couple of people I talked to were VERY reasonable. The site tries to match up truckers that are already going close to your shipping route and have some space available with loads to fill the space.
