I think Loren is talking about an item I shipped out to them. It was
actually Toronto to Seattle, but other than that the description is
accurate. The crate dimesions were roughly 54" x 27" x 21" if memory
serves. I also had to build the crate myself. I swear by forwardair to
ship anything heavy within the US and Canada.
