    I need to get a package from Pittsburgh to Anaheim. UPS is crazy expensive. How do you get a Greyhound quote? How do you locate a relay? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    My experience is that you have to physically take the package/part to the nearest Greyhound terminal to get a quote. There may be some way to do it online but not that I'm aware of. My experience with Greyhound is also that they're not that much cheaper BUT will take odd shaped things like fenders etc. that UPS has a problem with. My .02

    As Vic stated, you can go to their website

    http://www.shipgreyhound.com/

    Click on quote and enter your items weigh and dimension. Select Pittsburgh and Anaheim and you'll get your quote.

    It's reasonable too. I recently had a 51 Merc door shipped from Minn. to san Diego for about $50.
