Shipping And Receieving Equipment > Ditch Witch 1820

Response: I don't mind answering your question: "inadequate equipment" was the only response that fit my problems with your quote -- you are using a pick-up truck, which indicates to me that you may not be a licensed trucker but an individual working on the side as a trucker, and with a history of only 3 loads -- and, more importantly, there was no opportunity to have insurance on the load.

Response: i totally understand your concern and yes i am operating from a pick up truck , and the rating issue is yes i am fairly new to this site but i am also trying to earn my way to the top by offering good prices with what i am able to do and insurance once it is in the back of my pick up truck it is covered under my insurance company ok i will do this if interested i can pick it up if somebody is able to load with forklift and deliver to u if somebody is able to unload with forklift for 300.00 but thats only if you are interested no pressure let me know thanks (11/12/2007)

Response: Hi -- It will be loaded with a fork lift and unloaded athe same way -- are your access doors wide enough to allow the lift device on the forklift to get inside your truck? Also, very important: What kind of insurance can you provide me with on my shipment. Value is about $3500. I would need a certificate of insurance to prove that we are covered. If you have read the other responses you have probably seen that this has to be picked up during regular business hours and dropped also during regular business hours. The "run" should take about 6 hours. (11/9/2007)

Response: ok..here's the deal. from your dims, and I've carried larger items, will fit easily. my rollup door dims are 7'-4"h x 84"w. so shouldn't be a problem there. As for insurance, yes, I carry full coverage cargo insurance through State Farm up to 100k. I can't give, or get, info to or from you at this stage because to exchange contact info at this point would get me AND you red flagged...red flags equate to account suspension...and frankly, for 300.00, it isn't worth it. I can place a bid, if you accept it, I can have a copy faxed to you as soon as I hit a fax machine. Thanks, Howard. Federated Couriers (11/9/2007)

Response: Howard -- when can you deliver to VA B? Sorry not to have gotten back to you sooner, but I left the office this morning and have been in the field and at a funeral -- when I got back this afternoon, the person from whom I am buying said it could be picked up tomorrow -- great notice! less than 24 hrs!, but I need to know a deliver day from you Many thank Stephanie (11/12/2007)

Response: well, if you're ready to go..I can pickup in the morning, bright and early, and have it by 8:00am Wednesday. (11/12/2007)
