Important Information Regarding Freight Shipments:
Truck freight may require an additional 1-2 days handling time due to the nature of the LTL industry and carrier pickup schedules. For items shipped truck freight, they are expected to be delivered to a commercial facility with a forklift or other means to receive the item from a trailer. If the delivery address is zoned Residential you must specify such on the quote form as Residential deliveries require an additional charge as well as liftgate service.
Also, be sure to inspect deliveries for any damage PRIOR to signing the Bill of Lading. If the item is damaged, note it on the BOL and notify the driver. Take pictures if possible. If the item is damaged beyond use, do not sign the BOL. Note the damage on it and please refuse the shipment and notify us immediately.
NOTE: Even if operating a business from a garage behind a home, or a farm in certain areas, your city/jurisdiction zone may be considered residential. Please be sure to select the correct option. Being a business does not automatically make it commercial. If the delivery property is zoned as residential, the delivery companies also consider it as such. Please select the correct zone as incorrect information could delay or prevent delivery as well as accrue additional charges.
