[TowerTalk] Fwd: freight cost of tower part

[Hans Hammarquist via TowerTalk]

DHL, that only ship internationally, offered to cut the ~$6000 shipping cost by $6 resp $7 if it got dropped off and picked up at their terminals instead of the door-to-door offer. Generous I say. I think it will be uship.com, estes.com or me driving to myself.

Is there any additional terminal charge when you ship to a terminal?   Can you 
ship to any local terminal, or does it have to be a fed-ex terminal?   There is 
a local truck terminal but of course they don't cover where I would have 
something shipped from.

tnx
