Seriously how much for delivery… $42 million dollars if it was a Nasa space shuttle. Nasa are planning on selling their old ‘stock’ deliveryÂ / shipping and handling is $42 million dollars.

Why so much? Moving a wide, heavy load is expensive.Â A fully loaded shuttle can take up to three hours to move one mile.Â Now in this instance it will not be carrying the fuel so it should be able to move that bit faster. Banksmen and other technical and non technical support is also required. You cannot just through a shuttle on the back of a lorry and hope there will need to be police escorts and co-ordination with the highways agencies etc. It could be split down and sent by road and air but most likely it would be shipped.

If you can afford to buy one, I am sure the delivery charges are not a problem the good news is decommissioning fees are also included!

Delivering items isn’t just going from a to b, sometimes more detail and thought is required. When you use a courier do you actually ask for a detailed quote or just a price?
