Most of the shipping websites USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc... will have a shipping calculator that lets you input your zip, weight of package and the receivers zip then it will give you an estimate

^ As stated above you need both Zipcodes (yours and buyers) along with the weight of each package.

I keep seeing people talk about using Greyhound to ship bulk items as well due to cost savings so maybe thats an option too ?

Correct. I can tell you it was about $180 to ship stock 20" rims only from Baltimore to Tampa Fedex ground home delivery.

The bad thing with them is they take WAY longer to get a item. Plus the way stuff is packed with them is insane. I bought a bumper and the guy used greyhound. It took 2 weeks to get and it was damaged. I was told it gets put with all the luggage and stuff.

Not trying to be mean but where else would they put it? They don't have shipping freights, trucks and planes like the actual shipping companies. They're a people carrier

Sometimes it's worth it to pay the extra money to have the piece of mind and convenience. Especially dealing with expensive, oddly shaped car parts.
