Default Wing Slow Build Crate Size

I will be placing the order with Vans for my -8 wing kit after the first of the year. From what I seen in pictures, it appears that the wing kit will come in two crates. Could someone please give me the rough dimensions of the crates as I am trying to find the best and cheapest method of shipping them 2400 miles across the US.

Has anyone used Uship before?

Try THIS document

Also, since Van's passes the volume discount (they ship a LOT) on to customers, most people find that they can't get it shipped any cheaper on their own (not saying there aren't some exceptions though). Something to keep in mind while shopping shipping.
