Upon
customer request 20’ containers may be delivered on short bed trucks
that do not require the maneuvering distances of longer trucks.
Unless a short truck is requested in advance, containers are
delivered on a full-sized truck/trailer.
These vehicles are typically 65 to 75 feet in length and require
the following:
.
·
Flat,
solid ground capable of supporting truck, trailer and container.
(Rain soaked ground can make delivery impossible).
·
95
feet straight ahead to pull out from under a 20’ container (less on
short truck).
·
120
feet straight ahead to pull out from under a 40’ or longer container.
·
15
feet minimum space width and clear height from ground to 16’ during
offload procedure (Please call our dispatch office if height
clearance is a concern).
·
No
90o or horseshoe bends in road or driveway leading to drop
location.
·
Most
trucks need about 40’ width available to navigate curves on roads or
driveways lined with trees, fences or hillsides.
·
No
steep grades at drop off location.
Roadway grades greater than 4% are considered steep.
Customer
accepts responsibility for the freight charges if the driver is unable
to deliver the unit where expected (Freight drivers are the experts
regarding delivery and as such make the final decision regarding
placement of the container). Refusal
of delivery at drop off for any reason results in freight charges being
assessed.
If
the driver says he/she cannot place the unit at the customer’s desired
location a secondary drop location must be made available or the
customer is liable for freight to and from the delivery location.
Standard
offload time is 45 minutes. Added
freight charges may be assessed for excess offload time or mileage
outside the city limits of the city indicated by purchaser at the time
order was placed.
Customer
terminated orders are assessed a $250 cancellation/restock fee.
Customer refunds are processed within 10 business days of
cancellation date.
