Large metal print shipping to Alaska

2 months 2 weeks ago #761280 by Fess Walker
The print company I normally use won't ship to Alaska.  Can you suggest a metal print company that will ship a 40x60" print to Alaska?   I have a client who moved to Fairbanks last year and wants me to have this photo printed to large metal print and shipped to them.   

Thanks for the help

Might be cheaper to ship freight.

Short of driving it up there myself, I'd take it to a UPS store (et al.).

I agree. 

If a UPS Store packs it, they will guarantee safe delivery. But you will need to get it to them and them to accept it for shipping. They don't refuse much, but this might be one of them.

OMG, if I had the time, I have always wanted to drive up to Alaska.  But when that day comes, I'm doing to do it right and take my time so I can stop and photograph what I want.

Package the print yourself and bring it to one of those mail box stores that ships with all carriers, they will tell you on the spot who is cheapest.
