Many places. Greyhound, Fastenal, UPS, as well as any freight company.

Just went through this with some fenders. Motor freight companies will haul it IF it is attached to a pallet or is inside a create. IT will fall under "dimensional" pricing and will be pretty expensive. I would venture a guess at anywhere from about $ 280 to close to $ 500 depending (being west coast AND you have more distance than I had SO I might bump my estimates to 350 to 700) on who you have haul it AND using a discount.....IF you don't have a discount I would say Motor Freight is out of the question. As for the Greyhound bus, I cannot answer you as I had a person who could not OR would not take to a bus station SO not sure what Greyhound does anymore?

Check with GLS, depending on your hood size & weight it can go as over sized parcel.
Just shipped two pickup bed sides from Wa to Ca for $125, two day delivery.
Last check Fastenal was not offering their blueline.
Bused a large part in 2021 from Mt to Ca pricey for the level of service & and very - very slow.

Probably too big for for the Grey Dog Express. But here are the limits:
The maximum weight per package is 100 pounds. The maximum dimensions that we can accommodate are 29? H x 47? W x 82? L.

You might find someone headed to
Chickasha Spring Swap Meet
from Spokane - Tom Carnegie at Antique Auto Ranch
isn’t going this year - maybe you could set up a relay
from there back to San Diego - there are a few guys
headed to Chickasha from California.
