For anyone interested, based off of pdXammo's recommendation we went with greyhound shipping. The website was easy to calculate cost. There were half a dozen pricing options based on size. I presented 4 sizes w/ pricing to the buyer and he selected <63" >51" to minimize folds to the carpet. Max size was 29x47x62. Folded in half long side and ends tucked in a bit, I got it to 59x28x12. I wrapped it with industrial plastic wrap and dropped it off. Weight was 21lbs and cost $62.35 from Utah to California, station to station. They offered station to door for $135. I think the smallest we could have done would have been $41 but would have taken a great deal of folding. So greyhound was 1/2 cost of UPS. Drop off was easy, I hope pickup is just as easy for the buyer
