I need to ship a framed artwork in a 40" x 40" x 5" crate.
value is 4K

shipping from NM, USA to Simei, Singapore. postal code: 520123

I checked out fedex and UPS.. 1100 and 800 $ respectively.
seems like fedex won't even insure past a grand--which is strange as their shipping costs more than that.

Anyways, no DHL shop in the state.

does anyone have experience with this?
anyway to do it cheaper?

Seems to be DHL Authorized Shipping Centers in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Taos.

thanks for response.
hmm. going to have to look into DHL in Albuquerque.

El Paso would be reasonable if we weren't driving to Arkansas for tour opener this week. :pint:

DHL seems to think 40 x 40 x 5 is too big.. won't let me go over 40 x 31".

Did you just find the locations based on google? I may have to just go to one of these little shops.

To ship it that far remove it from the frame and let the buyer reframe it.
