Need Help in LTL Shipping for Furniture Products within USA
I have started an online store, where i am selling furniture items.
I am using Fedex and UPS for shipping the products under the weight range of 150Lbs.
But the problem is with the havier items like beds and sofas which are above the 150lbs weight range.When I searched that how to ship these items,I got the answer of LTL Shipping.But when I went to the LTL shipping companies the rates there I got were shocking.For example,
I got a LTL quote for shipping a product of 650lbs from NewYork(10128) to Los angeles, CA(90071).
The Price I got was2500$ .
That was really shocking,since the original price of the product was 500$ and intrestingly one of my competitors were selling that bed in 900$,while offering a FREE SHIPPING to their customers.
I'm totaly lost and confused about this,can anyone please help me in it?
