It's easy to find out the size and weight allowed by the airline you 
are flying - though I think it fairly universal. Just go to their web 
site. Most of the time it is 50 lbs. or less for free, and it can get 
steep quickly for each pound over. It should also give you the costs 
for overweight and/or oversized baggage. You should check ahead for 
oversized and weight as some planes have restrictions that can not be 
worked around.
It is also advisable to ship to someone (business or individual) over 
just point to point whenever possible. And if shipping to a hotel or 
convention site, you might check and see if there is a cost for them to 
receive the packages.
Freight truck is also a possibility, but you'll have to ship from 
business to business.
