Greyhound shipping experiences

Share your greyhound shipping experiences here, I am currently having a nightmare dealing with them. Wanted to hear what you guys have to say about using them in the past!

Shipped 3 exhaust with them no problem. One of them was earlier this month. That one took 13 days to go from FL to CA, but still got here.

About 5 years ago I got a front bumper shipped across the country from California and it turned out fine. Surprisingly cheap for the large, awkward size and the distance.

Shipped 99 Cadillac SLS fender in a huge box. Price was the cheapest and buyer got everything in good condition. Not the most convenient (unless you live close to Grey Hound stations), but cheapest.

Sorry to bring back an old post lol but, what was the process when you opened a “tracer” with corporate or customer service.. I bought a CSL trunk for my car and last checkpoint was Chicago from AZ to MI ... starting to get worried since they don’t have my package and the tracking is useless any help would help brother! Thank you

I've received body panels & a soft top on frame through them. All arrived intact. They are just slow.
