As another poster stated, you can ship the stove so long as it is free of
residual fuel. Similar to empty fuel bottles, though I understand some
folks have needed to limit it to new in the manufacturers packaging. Not
sure how to get them back, then.
 
I am not aware of a way you can ship the fuel.
 
Tooth of Time Traders has some fuel options, and white gas can be had. You
should check to find out if the kind of fuel you need is carried by TOTT.
Powermax is one, I don't know what others. Call the ranch to make sure.
 
We always take amtrak, and the train has never asked, so we just took them
with us.

I was trying to ship our stoves and fuel today, and wanted to be sure to
properly mark the box that contained them, so I called UPS to find out
exactly what to do, and the lady I spoke with said they couldn't take the
shipment unless we were on a UPS shipping contract that had HAZMAT and I'd
been trained in HAZMAT. Who actually will ship this stuff, and how do I
need to mark the package? Are people just shipping this stuff UPS and not
worrying about the fact that the contents are flammable (i.e. the "don't
ask, don't tell" of shipping)?
