transporting items to BM that are too big for the plane

I know there are semi-trucks leaving various cities on which people can load bikes or other items to then reclaim them at burning man. Do these exist leaving from Vegas? How does a person get items to the playa that are too big to take on the plane? Thanxxxx

Why not just ship it from your local UPS or Fedex place to the Reno UPS or Fedex place?

Drop by

and see if that group is sponsoring a truck or knows someone who is.

I hate to say it, but if you need a truck the only way to assure it happens is to step up and make it happen. Find out the cost, arrange for others to contribute, and get a driver. That's how it's happening in the other cities.
