Delivery & Shipping

Delivery Service:

Dan and I are finding it more difficult to personally do deliveries so we are relying on our employee, Joe to decide if he has the time to do them. If you need something delivered, we can ask Joe. Joe decides his delivery fees based on the distance, the piece or pieces being delivered and if he has help from you at your end or has to provide help for the delivery.
We highly recommend that you take advantage of our discounts for Cash and Carry and consider renting a truck adequate to carry your pieces. Half or full day truck rentals are VERY REASONABLE. For a full service delivery, we can send you to Craters & Freighters. We are still happy to help load and pack.

Shipping:

For shipping elsewhere in the country and Alaska and Hawaii, you may find the following companies useful. We are only responsible for the merchandise while it is in our possession. We strongly suggest that our customers purchase insurance when having an item shipped. If you need assistance dealing with any of these companies, will will be glad to help you out.
Shipments to Canada may require you to meet a driver at a border town. We are having trouble finding shippers who will deliver to your door and go across the border with their rigs.
Shipments overseas are incredibly expensive. Don't be surprised if we just can't find a reasonable solution for you.
