Shipping my machines
I am getting ready to move cross-country (TX to VA) and need to figure how how to ship my machines. Do I trust the moving company to pack the machines and ship with the rest of my things or do I make separate arrangements? I still have the original box for my embroidery machine but not for the other machines, including a Fairly expensive (at least to me) sewing machine as well as a smaller embroidery machine. UPS will charge over $125 to pack, ship, and insure the most expensive machine and somewhat less for the smaller. Have any of you entrusted your machines to a long distance mover? Do I really need to go to the expense of separate shipping? What do you think?
