Just to add - freight means you get the estimates and arrange the shipping, and crating if necessary - not the buyer.
When listing with freight, it is good to get a local freight company to quote you estimated rates to a near location and a far location. Then you can give the buyer an idea of the range. He can’t give you his location until he buys the item.
As @jacbarcollectibles described, items like this are best offered for local pickup only.

Mentor8 months agoThis can be a problem when shipping by freight. That item is best sold for Local Pick-up and not shipped. This is because your No Returns policy is overruled by a buyers claim of an "item not as described". So by having the buyer pick up the item you can reduce these kinds of claims as the buyer sees the item in person before buying.
