Pickup
Shipments will be picked up at a dock or through one door on the ground floor. Craters & Freighters Global Logistics may use a box truck equipped with a lift-gate. The estimate is based on a one-person pickup. If the shipper is unable to assist the driver with overweight or oversize items, we may supply a second person. Please contact us if you require additional personnel. Additional charges may apply. With the condition of stairs or other obstacles at the pickup location, additional charges may apply.

Delivery
The consignee may be contacted, by phone, to set up a delivery day. Deliveries are typically made in the morning, Monday through Friday, with a four-hour window. To keep shipping costs to a minimum, delivery is based on a one-person delivery to the door of the ground floor or to the tail end of the truck when cargo is oversize/weight. Items that weigh more than 100 pounds or are oversize will be considered delivered to the tailgate of the truck. The consignee will be responsible for unloading and should have the proper help at the delivery site. When the consignee cannot unload, you must contact us immediately for other arrangements made prior to shipping or delivery. We can usually provide any level of service that you require, including a second person, uncrating, inside delivery, lift-gate, and other services. Please note that these services will require an additional charge above the quoted amount. A 28- to 54-foot truck routinely delivers shipments. If the consignee lives in an area where delivery by a large truck is prohibited, contact us immediately. Additional charges may apply.
