$250 for those dimension across the country is a pretty good quote via LTL, do you know what class the quote was done against ?
As to not being able to strap down, its pretty easy. Go to you cheapie parts house or if you have a Harbor Freight get 4 web tie downs. 4 if not long enough for each. If you can get it to a LTL'ers dock and you know them well enough they will strap it down for you, might have to hand the guy doing it $10. Or find a place that ships a lot of stuff and do the same there. Oh .. and find a place that receives a lot of large shipments and you can usually get for free plenty of corner and edge protectors. I haven't had to pay for LTL size shipping supplies in 20 years.
