I think you only said N. California in general? I'm sure SW flies cheap from Seattle to 2 or 3 of the 4 N. Cali cities? Try SFO, OAK, SJC & SAC.. 2 free 50 lbs bags for each person flying!

Are you going with it? Grab a Southwest ticket, pack two big luggage with 40 pounds each, and check 'em for free.

Try Craigslist, I'm sure nice people are driving that route everyday with room in their vehicle. Maybe $10 up front and $30 from whoever they drop it off to? That would sure help their gas bill too!

I work at a college and the student post office will let us know which service is cheaper when mailing a package. Is there a mailing store near you that would provide a similar service?
