I will send in someone that will load this onto their own trailer. No one actually has to be there unless they want to. Most of the time when we pick up equipment the shipper will know we are coming in but are usually not there. The equipment would be shipped the same day, and more than likely could arrive on the same day also. These are just default settings that are automatic days for the shipments. This may take a couple of days to get completely lined up because of the locations. Is there docks at either end? Thanks for asking the questions and if I can help you any further, please let me know. Christine
