Amtrak. Ive shipped 8 tubas with them and no problems. I recently sent a Jupiter 582 from Seattle to New Haven, Conn in three days for a whopping $56.00 which included $2000 insurance. The only trick is that seller and buyer are reasonably close to an Amtrak station. Usually, I ship the horn in a box, but the three Jupiters I've sent have great cases and they went unwrapped. DLH
