I sold a transmission to someone in Santa Anna, CA earlier this year and tried to use Fastenal, but they wouldn’t ship to any of the stores near him.  We ended up using UPS, which ran about $160.

Greyhound weight limit is about 100 lbs.  there are also some weird size limits, since it has to fit in the under bus luggage space. 
But it’s cheap, and can be fast.
