| Do a google search for Wild Game Transport. They moved my trophy collection from CA to GA. Based in CO, they are very good and nice people to do business with.

| I bet Southwest Wildlife in Scottsdale could crate them up; they have delivered a lot of my stuff to my house. Frankly, anyone who can build a crate should be able to do this; I had a friend's son crate my stuff when I sold my house in MN and had no issues with it when it arrived in AZ. |

| WGT used a 35’ fifth wheel trailer to move my stuff. They don’t crate anything. The trailer has 2 levels inside running lengthwise and covered in plywood. Shoulder mounts are attached with wood screws through the back and 3-5 mounts are attached to each 4’x8’ piece. I also had a full body leopard and cape buff pedestals, elephant tusk pedestals, full body steenbuck, red duiker, and suni.. Shoulder mounts included big stuff like a a moose, eland, kudus and 2 caribou- a total of at least 35 shoulder mounts- 2 zebra rugs and a croc rug with head on. They took everything off the walls, were loaded up and hit the road about 3 hours after arrival. 2 1/2 days later they unloaded everything into my storage unit. They used a 3 man crew and drove straight through-2700 miles. It wasn’t cheap but it was well done and worth it. And no crates to take down and dispose of. Everything arrived in perfect shape.

That is actually similar to Southwest Wildlife; they have a huge trailer and just bolt the stuff on the walls, on plywood, etc. |

| I got a quote to crate and move my 25 pieces. Don’t have the number at hand. It was sky high. I rented a Pensky 26’ truck and did it myself. I screwed 2x4s 4-5’ long to the back of the mount. Then screwed that 2x4 to the bed of the truck. Worked just fine for a 1000 mile trip.

| AS an owner of a hauling company I would inquire about an air ride trailer, really helps with the jolts and bumps in the road.
