Shipping truck to Oregon

[60dzl]

Very cool. I actually worked in Newberg for a bit right out of school before I got my current job in Bend. Its a nice area for sure.

Congrats on the new job! I shipped my 109 from Bend OR to RI and it ran 750 or so. I don't remember the broker but the truckers they used were dicks and asked for more money because the 109 was too tall, despite my clear warnings. While I had a contract signed I paid the extra money because I wanted the truck Asap but the broker was no help. I'll see if I can find the name. Just be sure to let them know the vehicle height (mine is 7'4" with the rack). I know you can find my story on here with search.

Thanks for the heads up, I have never shipped a truck before so any and all advice is welcome.

here's an unhelpful comment

I got my 1969 IIA 88" out to Oregon a few years back - by driving it, from Maine, via Fairbanks, AK. Totally worth the trip and you'll be talking about it for years. It also will show you what needs fixing!
