That is the unfortunate fact where it costs more to ship than it is worth.  I ended up tossing several HP G6 servers last year since I knew no one local that had any interest.  

The giant Supermicro servers that I have (which are 4U), I had to pickup in our truck.  I should have taken pictures, but it filled the entire back of the truck since it came with external enclosures as well - which were another 2U. So basically 22U worth of server/storage.  And they weighed a TON!  Had to remove all the drives to even lift them without getting a hernia.  

You should see this monster Dell laser printer I lugged home many years ago. I'm not sure that I could do that now without being sore for a week.
