Unless it's something you really, really, really just gotta have and it's so rare you won't find one locally ever, I would say don't bother. There are a few people on here who I am sure will chime in on their out-of-province experiences.
Currently Owning: Vids- Road Blasters, Road Runner, Joust, Golden Tee 2005 Pins- Back to the Future, Theatre of Magic, Joker Poker, Grand Tour, Hyperball
Previously Owned: Vids- Far too many to list Pins- High Speedx2, The Shadow, Mystic.
It is a rare machine and I would really like to own it. Might be worth the cost & effort but I don't want to invest too much if it is a overwhelming hassle.

You may then have to use a moving van lines company who can pick up the machine from the location, with a lift truck and wrap it for you. Expensive. Or pay a local pinhead to help make the terminal to terminal come true. Check the price with MO as well.

You can try Norht American Van Lines, they used to do door to door pinball for around $500, but there may be others, plus there are online services where you can post your requirements and shippers will bid on it.
I just used a guy on Uship who is based in WPG to ship 2 games to Vancouver. It wasn't cheap but he delivered it in his own van and it was well taken care of. I got quotes from 5 different shippers but they all required the games packed on pallets, and I got a quote from NAVL, which was actually more expensive. (the seller had no idea how to pack on a pallet) Look for a service provider named Jeff Sutherby on Uship. If you can't find it send me a note and I'll forward you his details. He just left my house tonight so it may be a few days.
