I know very little about it but fedex has a flat rate type shipping gaylord box on a pallet. Roughly a four foot cube. I think a tablesaw would fit. maybe a jointer with tables off. 1,200 pound limit. no idea if they ship to/from non loading dock locations.

Drilling down on that link a bit, the prices seem fairly reasonable, $140 - $380 depending on zone and priority.Quote:

So this would be a perfect solution to a problem I have, but as is my luck, their boxes are too small... My problem, a guy has been creating a Xmas present for me since December, and he's a day or two from being done finally, if not already, need to call him today. It's about 140#, measures roughly 36" x 36" x 53" tall, and is VERY fragile. To have a box and pallet ready for it to go into to be shipped here would be great...
