Alright so I'm buying a rear bumper and I need to arrange the shipment, but I don't know where to start looking.

Approximately how much should it cost to ship a rear bumper about 40-50lbs from FL to OH? I'm not sure about the dimensions though, it's a 300zx bumper.

Also, who should I call to do the job that will be the cheapest?

Will I get a discount for being a student? I heard that from somewhere that it's cheaper for students. I don't know if it's true or not.

UPS says about $40. UPS, Fedex, and USPS all have shipping calculators on their websites. So just have the dood take it to UPS all boxed up and you should be good to go.

I do all the shipping and receiving at my job aka ups, fedex, all freight carriers etc. Well whatever you do dont ship it fedex they beat the hell out of their packages. UPS is the way to go but make sure the guy packs it up like crazy with bubble wrap and what not because their not to good with their packages. A bumper doesnt weigh muchso shipping shouldnt be that horribly terrible. Just dont go fed-ex!
