IF, and I repeat IF, Fastenal falls in the category of FREIGHT, which I think it does, you will pay way more than what I recommended. This is NOT a freight item. You say both parties are near a Fastenal terminal/store. FedEx, UPS and U.S. Post office small trucks run up and down the streets of America every day. They all have neighborhood stores. They have a route they drive. Every Zip code has a truck. Some offer free pickup at your door. Some will pack it for a fee. I do not understand, yet, the use of this company? At least when you get done packing, weigh the boxes, measure the boxes and go online to these shippers I've mentioned and get a quote. You do not have to wait for the quote, it is immediate. Fastenal web site says they are competitive, if they are, I'm wrong.
You may find FedEx is cheapest of the three I listed. BTW: Shipping rates have skyrocketed in the past few months.
I do understand you are trying to make it easy for your friend. One piece in each tote is expensive.
The only problem may be that the three I mentioned may not accept totes because of the "stick out" lip. Be aware of that.
I dumpster dived and got one box for two backs and one box for two seats.
The one time I freighted something, the rule was everything had to be fastened to a pallet.
