Shipping to Additional Regionals

Hey all, our team is contemplating going to a second regional depending on the cost.
Approximately how much does shipping your robot to another regional and back cost? Thank you

Re: Shipping to Additional Regionals

We were quoted about $500 for shipping from LA to Phx, but these are back to back regionals (consecutive weeks), so this may be higher than normal.

In the past we've delivered the robot to the drayage company for the first regional ourselves, then had FedEx pay for shipping from the first to the second regional, and from the second regional to home, so we did two regionals for zero shipping cost.

We do the same; the cost for the truck is under $200.
