Default shipping wheels over the border

I'm in Wa. State and there is a person in Calgary interested in buying my 15x7 TSW hockenheim wheels and was wondering with the collective knowledge and experiences of this forum if there is a best way to ship up north and with who. Thanks for any input.

Default I had 10spokes come to me from Georgia.... UPS>>>

brokerage ended up costing me a fvcking fortune.

I paid $140 for all (4) wheels, but the UPS charges incl. shipping came out to be $160. If I'd of known that I would have kept the things shipped within the States and then ran down across and picked 'em up.

Otherwise I don't really think there's a "best" way to go about it. Any way you choose is pretty well a PITA. Greyhound might be your best option... otherwise revert to FedEx/UPS.
