Advice or help with shipping a bike from Boulder/Denver to the east coast

[ridethecliche]

Hiya!

I'm looking for a bike for a teacher friend on a budget and found something in Boulder that might actually be perfect for her current needs and budget.

Interestingly enough, I'll be heading to CO next week for a snowboarding trip and should have some time to go check out the bike.

Does anyone have any recs on how I might be able to ship it back? I don't have any relationship with a shop out that way re getting boxes etc.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: it might be hard to do since I'll have snowboard gear, but I could possibly also fly back with the bike all boxed up which will likely save a bunch vs flying.
