I am trying to figure out how to get a bunch of my stuff from Portland Oregon to my home in Hilo Hawaii. I read that others have shared containers and i am looking for people to share shipping costs. I need to ship a motorcycle, snowboarding and skydiving equipment, tools, some boots and a couple other small things, and possibly a folding trailer. Anyone interested or anyone with advice chime on in.

It would help to know your time frame, size of container, cost, etc?

cheaper to sell and re-buy stuff than ship it. except for motorcycle, Pasha shipping out of San Diego by far the cheapest.

Better check. If you ship a car inside a container, you not only pay for the container, you also pay the tariff for shipping a car... obviously only practical for a really valuable car you want to give extra protection to. Dunno, but the same could be true for motorcycles, since they are motor vehicles and there is a published tariff for them.
