Shipping Policy

• Large items ship via commercial freight carriers using 53-foot enclosed tractor-trailers. Please ensure your delivery address is a legitimate business location that can accommodate this size vehicle. Residential addresses, farms, and limited-access locations (e.g., schools, storage units, government facilities) may incur additional charges.

Delivery Access

• The truck must have clear access in and out of your property.
• We cannot ship to vague locations (e.g., “end of Sam’s Club parking lot”) or addresses that require passing through gates or checkpoints without prior coordination.
• If a semi cannot access the location, delivery will be delayed or denied.

Unloading Responsibilities

• Customers are 100% responsible for unloading the shipment. You will need a forklift, skid steer, rollback wrecker, or similar equipment. The truck driver will not help unload, and disassembly inside the trailer is not permitted for safety and insurance reasons.
• Liftgate service is available for lighter items (under 1,000 lbs) for an additional fee, but most heavy equipment, especially lifts, cannot be unloaded by liftgate.

Scheduling and Communication

• Most freight carriers offer a free 24-hour call-ahead when the product reaches the terminal near you. Make sure we have a cell or work number on file to avoid missed calls and delays.
• “Call when 30 minutes away” requests cannot be guaranteed.
• Missed appointments may delay delivery and require rescheduling at the carrier’s discretion.

Freight Terminal Pickup or Alternate Delivery

• If you can’t unload at your location, we can ship to a local freight terminal for pickup.
• Alternatively, consider shipping to a friend’s business that has unloading equipment. Ensure they know how to inspect for damage and note it properly.

Inspection & Freight Damage

• Inspect the shipment before signing the delivery receipt. If there is damage, note it clearly on the bill of lading and take photos.
• Failure to note visible damage may forfeit your right to file a freight claim.
• All freight-related damage or shortages must be reported within 24 hours of delivery.

Self-Arranged Freight

• Customers using their own freight carrier must:
  • Provide a Bill of Lading
  • Be available 10 AM – 4 PM EST for truck loading
  • Accept that skid and brace fees ($20–$30) may apply for packaging safety
