I shipped a 48" round porcelain marathon gas sign to MI a few months ago. I used FedEx ground which was the cheapest cost was around $150.00 + $35.00 in materials. Keep in mind shipping a large sign is not an easy task and takes time and money to prepare it correctly for shipping. In order for it to get there safely!

Good to know Joey - that price compares almost exactly with the cost I paid to ship a similar sized sign this winter via UPS ground.   At least I know I didn't get ripped off ... well, either I didn't or we both did!   biggrin
