FWIW I was quoted $500 CAD to ship a hydraulic massage table from Vancouver to Toronto with WestJet Cargo a month ago (two packages: 30kg, 104×63×24cm; 27kg, 79×100×29cm)~. My sister brought the table the other way with the cheapest land-based courier she could find, I believe it was a trucking company, and paid ~$700 CAD.
By air it was easy to arrange, it's there a day later, and can wait in their warehouse for up to three days free of charge. By land, it took a week and was difficult to arrange.
