What is liftgate?

Standard (curbside) freight delivery: the driver brings the pallet to your address but does not unload it, so you need a loading dock, a forklift or enough people to unload it.

Liftgate delivery: the truck's hydraulic liftgate lowers the pallet to the ground, the right choice for a home, school, park or any address without a dock. To add it, choose the shipping method "Premium Insured Freight + Liftgate (+$209)" at checkout. It is $209 per order and covers all freight items in the order. It does not include inside delivery or assembly. Shipping policy
