Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello, are these items stackable and are the boxes or is it furniture? and will there be stairs at either end of shipment? Thank you Cindy (8/22/2007)
Response: I don't know how "stackable" they are, I have seen them at stores and they are always standing on their sides. I suspect too much weight will crush the mattress and perhaps the box springs. (8/22/2007)
Response: could you tell me what the items are and are they stackable? and are the stairs at pickup or delivery locaton? Cindy (8/22/2007)
Response: Cindy, it is a queen mattress and box spring. I will wrap in plastic (each piece separately). You do not have to worry about stairs, my son will meet you outside in Golden. I will have the set at my front door (no stairs). (8/22/2007)
Response: Great thank you for your response and we will be loading out of Houston on mon and tue. of next week would pick up in Houston work for you on tue. and flexable on the the delivery in Lubbock acording to route due to route will take me up to Ok. and then into Col. and back thru Lubbock on my way back to the Houston area? If this will work for you will place bid.Thank you Cind (8/22/2007)
Question: So sorry I got on the wrong email about your shipment and will be leaving on Tue from the houston area and would need to pick in McKenney on Wed or Thur early and be flexable on delivery due to route is going Ok and then on to Col. would this time frame work for you? Thank you and sorry for the other email. Thank you Cindy (8/22/2007)
Response: I am flexible. Son is sleeping on floor in college apt. (I have told him I am working on this). Please bid and advise me of terms, I would hope to give you 1/2 here when you picked up and he'd give you 1/2 upon delivery. I will have to keep him posted. He has classes on M, W, Friday and gets docked for skipping them, but he has a ton of friends and they will help him out, just need to try to coordinate it so you won't be inconvienenced. Lynne (8/22/2007)
Response: No problem with 1/2 down and other 1/2 on delivery. Would need to load next week mid week and delvery on route to col. but route goes to ok. 1st then onto Col. would work with him a time frame to work around his schedule and could delivery evenings if needed.Thank you Cindy (8/22/2007)
Response: Please advise on cost/bid. I need to figure out if I can do this or not. If too high, he might as well just go buy something there. Regards,Lynne (8/22/2007)
Response: What is your budget? (8/22/2007)
Response: Cindy, I would love it if you would take 150.00. What do you say? I have never shipped anything like this before, so I hope I am not off, but anything more and he might as well go buy something there. (8/22/2007)
Question: Well I can not do it for $150.00 with fuel and truck and equipment along with salary for driver I would need to make 375 to 400 to cover some of the cost on the route. Cindy (8/22/2007)
Response: Cindy, Thank you, I appreciate the situation and completely understand. I will just sell the set and give him the money to purchase something up there. Thank you for your time and effort.- Lynne (8/23/2007)
Response: Just had to do the same with my daughter but mat/boxsprings are not cheap so check pricing for new befor you really choose not to ship. Will keep on watch list till truck goes out on Tue. Thank you for looking to u-ship for your shipping needs. Cindy (8/23/2007)
Response: Cindy, did you just bid to take the queen box and mattress? (8/24/2007)
Response: yes, leaving later part of next week. will that work four you and would there be someone to except over labor day weekend? (8/24/2007)
Response: Can be ready on both ends. Son will be there to accept even if over labor day weekend. (8/24/2007)
