Questions for this shipment: 

Question: If there is help loading and unloading this in my pickup bed, I can bring it to you Friday for a reasonable price as I will be traveling that way. Let me know and I'll bid. Thanks Jim (9/9/2009)
Response: The owner in Louisville said he can help load onto a "dock high" (4 ft. high) Truck Bed. He said 2 people could load the printing press from loading dock onto "dock high" truck. We have no equipment at the "destination" in Franklin, so a lift gate on back of truck would be needed. Many Thanks! Chip (9/9/2009)
Response: If you can figure a way to load and unload out of pickup bed, I will do for $200. Will be heading your way tomorrow morning. Thanks Jim (9/10/2009)

Response: Checked with owner of printing press and Saturday won't work. However, Sunday will. Could you pick-up & deliver on Sunday? (9/9/2009)

Question: would my 2004 chevy be high enough.i can do this week.will there be help to unload.can do for your max of 330 (9/9/2009)
Response: The owner tells me that a "dock high" truck bed is necessary. Needs to be 4 feet tall exactly where truck bed meets dock. What model Chevy is it? A pickup truck may be too small for the load. Thanks, Chip (9/9/2009)
