Shipping a seat 200

You may find that it's cheap to put them all in a big box and send them by truck. However the weight isn't that high, so it may not really be economical.
I think for UPS or similar to carry it, you'll need to lay the front seats flat, and find a box that fits. Make one, probably, out of some larger packing case like the box for a big TV or refrigerator. Take the headrests off the front seats, they just pull out after releasing the catches. Then they're nice rectangular packages. The rear seat pieces likewise will just have to be fitted into a big bulky box. I suppose 4 boxes to make them each manageable.
I'd expect shipping to be at least $20 a box due to the size.

Would it be possible to just drive out and pick them up? It's only a couple hours across IL and IN... maybe even meet halfway? That way nobody has to drive for 12 hours or something. Guess it depends on what part of Iowa and KY you have to go to.
I dunno, they're just not the kind of things people typically ship somewhere... but where there's a will, there's a way.
