I just shipped a SITES exhibit through Atlantic
Relocation Systems.  It was 4 large crates -- 200 to
250 pounds each.  From Canton OH to Atlanta GA.  The
cost was $745, which I thought was extremely
reasonable.  They did a great job, and were
recommended to me from the place in Chicago who used
them to send the exhibit to us.  I shipped a similar
sized exhibit 4 years ago through another company and
it was over $1000.  I assumed we would pay more than
that for this exhibit, given gas prices today, and was
thrilled with the cost.

Contact info:

They asked me to email info and sent me a quote.

Hope this helps!
