Someone contacted me asking to buy my Trapshoot. He offered a good price and I'm likely to go for it. But it would need to be shipped across the country. I have shipped regular arcade games by having them strapped to the side of the truck. But this thing is awkwardly shaped and the front plastic could easily be broken. I'd like tips or ideas of who to use and how to ship it.

There is a box shop near us that claims to be able to ship anything. So I'm going to get a quote from them today. But last time I shipped something with them it got damaged so I'm gun shy.

Thoughts?

Here is what it looks like:

It's like 5 or 6 feet long. Plus it has a large detached and very heavy coin-box.
 
Maybe see if it will fit in the tv moving box from uhaul? The game might be to thick, but those boxes are pretty good, so I think it would be worth looking into. The box, including the corner foam is $20.

How much do you think these weigh? I can't find it anywhere.
