Question: Good luck (10/16/2009)
Response: Thanks. A previously booked driver didn't show up today and is not answering calls. :-( (10/16/2009)
Response: Well best we could do is Monday, and we can provide lift gate service at pickup if needed. Please let me know if this can wait till Monday and if you need lift gate for pickup, our drivers do not handle other company forklifts. (10/16/2009)
Response: At the site we have a Clark electric lift forklift. But it is hand push. There is no loading dock. On Monday the would only be somebody to unlock the roller doors and the forklift. They are not strong enough to be much help with pushing the forklift around. If your driver can operate the forklift then i am it is a possibility. (10/16/2009)
Response: Sounds good, however as stated before our drivers cannot operate other peoples machinery we will have to rebid with lift gate services. (10/16/2009)
Response: Hi Afino. If there is anything else i can tell you please ask. Will (10/16/2009)
Response: I think we have all the information we need. If you like our offer we would be good to pickup for you Monday, pending the availablity of lift gate truck that day. (10/16/2009)
Response: Ok Afino. find out if you have that lift gate truck for sure and get back to me. Pity about all this i had a full size gas forklift there all day today to load the driver who didn't arrive. Now we only have the smaller electric forklift. :-( Will (10/16/2009)
Response: Ok, well heres the thing I wont be able to find out until Monday. And once I let you know and you accept our offer and we get all paperwork for you completed it may be to late in the day to schedule for same day pickup. So if you like you can accept our offer and we can schedule for Monday and if no lift gate trucks are available then it will be Tuesday. Know what Im saying ? (10/16/2009)
Response: Hey Afino. In that case we might as well wait until Saturday and see if any one else wants to pick it up, while i am in Mesa to load them. If that fails then i can still book you and your lift gate truck for Monday/Tuesday. Thanks Afino. Will (10/17/2009)
Response: No problem, that works. Thanks (10/17/2009)
Response: Ok thanks Afino (10/17/2009)
Question: We will place a bid if we can pickup Monday. This offer will be for without use of lift gate services. If lift gate is needed please let us know so we can rebid. Best, afino (10/16/2009)
Response: Afino There is only a hand push electric forklift and no loading dock. i do not know the type of sides on your truck. So i don't know if you would need a lift gate. But remember there is one 2000lb pallet so you might need the lift gate. Will (10/16/2009)
Response: No problem, we just rebid with lift gate services for pickup. (10/16/2009)
Response: OK (10/16/2009)
Question: i still have the truck there... (10/17/2009)
Response: The other driver didn't show up and is not answering the phone. :-( I had a large gas forklift there all day for loading. Now i only have a smaller electric forklift for loading. :-( I can be at the store with the manager in the morning to load your truck probably from 8:00am. What sort of truck? Will (10/17/2009)
Response: the landstar truck i found has a 53 ft airride van,will this unit work or i can chech on a flat or step deck,?William (10/17/2009)
Response: That's confusing you name is William and my name is William :-). I don't know the configuration of your 53' Van. If the driver has a hand pallet jack for moving the pallets around inside the van or a lift gate to get my electric lift hand push forklift up then that should be perfect. Remember 5 of the pallets are light (200-500lb) but one pallet is 2000lb. If i can give you any more information to help you bid please ask. Thank you William (10/17/2009)
Response: i think that if we load the biggest pallet last the other ones can be moved forward,but i have No trailers in mesa area with pallet jacks on them,William and William is great name lol (10/17/2009)
Response: Hey William, I do not have a loading dock at this site. So, for an enclosed van with no lift gate we have to push the pallets down the van. I will have guys to help load tomorrow morning. If your driver does not mind us pushing the pallets in then we are OK to go. In Carson where the truck will be unloaded we do have a loading dock and all the equipment. William (10/17/2009)
Response: I think we can get it done i submited the same bid i did this afternoon,thanks William (10/17/2009)
Response: Will the driver be able to pick up in the morning before noon? And will you be able to talk on the phone after i accept the bid? Will you phone contactable in the morning and from what time please? Thank you William (10/17/2009)
Response: yes,William to all of the questions i am still up working so you may call me tonite if you wish,thanks William (10/17/2009)
Response: Hey William. Earlier today there were 7 pallets. We gave a whole bunch of tools away to the neighbors :-) Now there are only 6 pallets, so the load is a bit smaller. Can you help with the price at all? Thanks William (10/17/2009)
