Tailgate Delivery
As part of the common carrier driver ICC regulations,
truck drivers are required only to bring merchandise to the tailgate (end) of
their vehicle. It is then the customers responsibility to remove it from
the truck. If you do not have the personnel or facilities to handle
unloading, we suggest one of the listed delivery options below.
Lift Gate Service ($150 per table):![]()
These services may be requested at an
additional charge of $150 per table before the shipment leaves our facilities.
The driver will assist someone from your business in moving merchandise off the
truck into the building. If there is an elevator available, the driver may
also assist in taking the merchandise to any floor above or below the delivery
floor. If no elevator exists, the driver will only assist in bringing the
merchandise into the entrance on the ground floor. If there are steps,
additional help will be required if you do not have a loading dock to lower the
shipment from the truck to the ground level. You are also responsible for
unpacking, setting in place, and debris removal.
Inside Delivery and Trash Removal
($250 per table):![]()
This service can be requested when you would
like your items to be delivered completely unpacked and ready for immediate use.
This service includes the inside delivery (listed above) and the delivery
carrier bringing the unpacked and uncrated items into the room of your choice.
It also includes the removal of all boxes, cartons, pallets and packaging.
Important:
When the shipment arrives, we suggest you check
your order immediately. If there is any damage, however small, to the
carton, packing material, if pieces are missing, have the driver make notations
on the delivery receipt. Open and inspect all packages/cartons
immediately. We suggest while the driver is present. Concealed
damages discovered after the cartons are opened must be reported within 15 days
of receipt of merchandise to the freight company (not us) and inspection
requested. Be sure to retain all packing information on how to report the
loss/damage to the freight company and proper procedure for filling
