You need to know the weight you are shipping. You need to know the rate to ship one pallet from your location to your buyer. You will need to answer these questions.
Here is a link for a scale listed on
ebay. Its not big enough to weigh an entire pallet but you can fill a tote and add up what you put on the pallet. I am NOT recommending the scale in the listing its just an example of what might work for you at a low price.
Since you are in Conway you have a lot of options of whose dock to ship from. I live in a town with one dock and no way to take a pallet from the back of my pick up and put it on the dock. I'm forced put a bunch of material in the tuck with a pallet and build the pallet on the dock. Not fun but way better price than fedex.
If you want a truck to come to your location and you don't have a dock then there is an additional charge, I'll guessing $100.00(lift gate charge).
We have a member who specializes in arranging shipping and is happy to answer your questions with real answers. Hopefully someone will be able to add his name as I can't recall it at this time.
Some of the buyers will be able provide you a good estimate of shipping.
One thing that is important is knowing just how big/tall a pallet you can ship because the bigger heavier the lower the shipping cost per pound.
As is the norm for questions like yours the answer depends on you and your circumstances not what works for me. 73, Mike
