Shipping a jukebox?

I used to use Oshkosh Ron and Eric's shipping for jukes and pinball machines back in the day, but haven't had to have anything large shipped in years. I just bought a juke in Oregon and need it shipped to me in Michigan. It's in a guy's house so it would need to be wrapped and shipped. Any suggestions on who to use these days for shipping a juke? I can probably find someone using U-Ship, but I'd rather use someone whom I could trust to handle a "delicate" juke...
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Definitely look around for n antique shipper. There was a guy called Howard's movers out of Colorado that use to move high end items for dealers in Chicago.....also I found out the hard way is that common carrier trucking companies will only pay 20 cents a pound if something gets destroyed. So ask about the insurance. For our antiques we have been using a company called plycon....they are expensive but very good...the best I've heard. If interested ill get you their number. Bill

Thanks!
It would be GREAT if you would let me have their number. Like a lot of coin op stuff, the value is in the fact that if something like a "plastic" gets broken, I'll probably NEVER find a replacement. So even if I did get a decent insurance check, it wouldn't do me much good....

Here is the number we use 1 708 339 8805. Good luck. If I can I'll try to track down Howard for you too.
