Not sure if this is the correct area to post (new here) but I was wondering if there were any online stores that ship tanks? I'm only coming across small ones and ones that require pickup (don't have a car) :(

There are several online that ship up to 300 gallon tanks. I like this one : http://www.fishtanksdirect.com/

Did you not google ... several in the US !

You could call a cab service and request a van type cab to get a tank home , that would be a hell of a lot cheaper than the freight online.
Even make arrangements with a local carrier service for pick up.

"Did you not google" IS a TAD rude, I did but aside from the more mainstream companies that don't want to ship, I hadn't had much luck AND it's always helpful to have recommendations from people that have actually used the site, THANK YOU SO MUCH for the link! Very much appreciated :)

Not trying to be rude ! But I see you took it that way by your all cap's (yelling) ... a perception on your part.

Honesty is the most humane gift you can give someone.

Your best bet is to look for a local specialist but I'm sure that would be expensive as well. What size tank are you looking for?

You can try aliexpress. I'm sure they have large tanks they can ship to you.
