Shipping & Delivery
LTL Freight Shipping
Delivery Method
This product is shipped by Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight because it is too large or heavy to be shipped by standard parcel carriers such as UPS or FedEx. LTL freight shipments are delivered by professional freight carriers.
Processing Time
All orders are processed within 1–2 business days before being released to the carrier. You will receive tracking information as soon as your order ships.
Delivery Timeframe
Transit times for freight shipments are typically within 1–15 business days, depending on your location, carrier schedules, and regional variations. This timeframe accounts for possible delays caused by weather, carrier availability, or delivery to more remote areas.
Delivery Options
- Dock Delivery
Dock delivery is the correct choice if your business has a loading dock or forklift available. For example, warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities that regularly receive palletized shipments would use dock delivery. This is generally the most efficient and cost-effective option.
- Liftgate Delivery
Liftgate delivery is required if your location does not have a loading dock or forklift. The truck will be equipped with a hydraulic lift that lowers the pallet safely to the ground. For example, if your delivery address is a retail storefront, veterinary clinic, or residential area without unloading equipment, you should select liftgate delivery. This option ensures that your shipment can be safely unloaded at your location.
Choosing the correct option at checkout is essential to avoid delays and to make sure the carrier can deliver your order smoothly. If you are unsure which option applies to you, please contact us before placing your order.
Shipping Charges
The exact shipping charge for this product will be displayed at checkout before you complete your purchase. The amount may differ depending on whether you select dock delivery or liftgate delivery.
