What's not cheap about it? Do you mean the prep-work, or the actual shipping?

Pallets seem to be readily obtainable in the US (unlike other countries, 
where companies like to re-use them rather than treat them as a waste 
item), so I'm surprised that a person can't acquire one, load it up 
securely*, and then call a freight company to have it moved.

* except that do guidelines for this exist? Maximum heights, type and 
number of straps required etc.?
