delivery to any commercial location on a commercial truck route. The freight
companies will deliver your shipment during normal business hours, 8am – 4pm

Residential Delivery:
If the ship to address is not a commercial location or is not on a
commercial truck route you must select residential delivery. This includes
deliveries to Residential locations including 'home based' businesses.
|
|
Limited Access Delivery:
If the ship to address is a commercial location but is not a
commercially zoned area or is an area that commercial trucks do not normally
deliver to, this includes deliveries to schools, churches, and many small
businesses without a loading dock facility, including ‘home based’
businesses, you must select the Limited Access Delivery option. |
|
Liftgate Service:
All freight rates quoted are for Tailgate Delivery. It is your
responsibility to have the personnel and/or equipment necessary to unload
the material that has been ordered. If you need to have the shipment
unloaded from the truck you must select Liftgate Service and the
trucking company will be responsible for unloading the delivery off of the
truck. They will only place the shipment on the ground and will not move it
inside or move it to any other location. If you need the equipment to be
moved inside you must select Inside Delivery. |
|
Inside Delivery: If
you need to have the equipment you are ordering delivered inside your
location you must select this service. The freight company will move the
equipment from the loading dock to your inside location, but will not move
it up stairs or transport on any elevators. They will move the equipment
inside the first available door which is decided by the delivery driver not
the customer. If you do not have a loading dock, you will require
Liftgate Service in addition to Inside Delivery. |

Notify Before Delivery:
If you need to have an appointment scheduled for the delivery we can
have the freight company contact you 24 hours in advance for a nominal fee. Damage/Loss Claims: Damaged merchandise is YOUR responsibility, if you have not so noted on the Bill of Lading. Inspect all merchandise immediately for damage. If truck driver does not allow inspection mark "Damage" on bill of lading.
