I had my Pinz trailered from Phoenix to New Orleans using UShp. The winning bidder was Texas Wheel and Wake. Chris was his name I believe. He has a driver in Cali that may be able to make your run fairly easily. But, my trip wasn't cheap as it was about a 25 hour drive one way. My total cost was $1150.00. So, you can use that as a gauge.

Good luck and happy travels.

United Rental rents heavy duty utility trailers at $50 a day.

I had my 712M shipped from Fayetteville to San Francisco area for $950. Only problem was the flatbed truck's ramps couldn't be mounted close enough to unload the Pinz. I couldn't find a ramp to use, so hired a tip bed tow truck. The tip bed backup up to the flatbed and tipped to match height. I drove the pinz onto the tip bed and after to trucks separated, the tip bed adjusted to ground level and I drove off. Oh Happy Day.

u-ship came through with the lowest estimate by far. Seattle to San Francisco for $798.00.
Thanks everyone!
