Interesting... I recently sent a German tilt from San Francisco to Philly. The receipt Greyhound gave me had a tracking number plus insurance was available. To my amazement, the item arrived in about 5 days.


Over the years, I've sent bumpers, brush guards, seats, Weekender fridges and safari roof baskets. All made it to their destination with no drama.


Not saying they have no issues. Only that I have had zero problems using Greyhound freight even as recently as a month ago. I have no personal connections with the company besides being a satisfied customer.




Regards,
