Call couple trucking firms see what they would charge you to bring the bike to your door step.

Go to www.forwardair.com and see where they have hubs at up in Alaska. They are very inexpensive and fast. I shipped a 550lb crate (quad) from Minnesotta to Ca for only $144.00 and it was here in 3 days! Get their phone # off the site and give them a call. They don't have computers answering, they have live people! Hope this helps.

Banshee,
Have your buyer go to a dealer where he lives and try to get a crate from a new quad. It is easier than building your own. Also check with forward air and see if they ship close to you. From what I have read from most sellers, they have found that is the easiest and cheapest way to go.
