Question:
HI. HOW MANY PIECES ARE THERE IN TOTAL AND IS THERE ANY HELP?... THAT WILL BRING THE PRICE DOWN. THANK YOU FELIX 300076 (5/9/2008)
Response:
There are 3 heavy machines that need to be moved. There are more depending on cost. I will be there to help but you still need a forklift and truck to move. (5/9/2008)
Question:
Is there anyway, you can get a forklift to do the loading and unloading, or enough guys, There are'nt many of us that have our own to do this for you. I would love to do this for you, transport your things to the new place but I don't have a forklift (5/9/2008)
Question:
Is each machine 6000 lbs, or the total shipment? We have 6 foot lift gates on the back of our trucks, but their weight capacity is only 4500 lbs. (5/9/2008)
Response:
Each machine is about 2000 lbs. (5/9/2008)
Response:
Okay. So each machine can be lifted and placed on our lift gates safely. Here are the next batch of questions.... How are the machines to be moved? Are they on casters? Can a pallets jack get under them and pick them up? Are they are pallets? Are you looking for a "Rigging company"? meaning one that has booms and spyder lifts? If these machines are manageable by two people, then I feel confident in placing a competitive bid. If this is requiring a full rigging service, then I would have to pass due to lack of equipment. You can see a picture of the available vehicles in our profile, but without pictures of the actual items, it is hard for almost any carrier to calculate the effort and equipment needed to handle the job correctly. (5/9/2008)
Response:
Each machine needs to be carefully jacked and then forklifted. Pallet jacks won't work and they are not on castors. Experienced equipment movers will be very familar with this kind of move. (5/9/2008)
Response:
That was what i thought. I think we will pass on this one to allow a more experienced and specific carrier to take up the challenge. Thanks for the prompt answers, and good luck. (5/10/2008)
Question:
are there any steps in the place where your delivery will be going? also can you provide your own forklift at delivery site? if not, can this be picked up with a flatbed? also need to know how many pieces you have in total. thank you 300076 (5/9/2008)
Response:
Not that I know of. No, we can't provide forklift. No, cannot be picked up with flatbed because machines are heavy. (5/9/2008)
Question:
Can you please provide some pictures of the equipment that needs to be moved. (5/9/2008)
Response:
Not now. Maybe later. (5/9/2008)
Question:
Shipper,please remember that price is one thing but getting it right is another.we will come there before hand to size up job we DON'T NEED pictures.accept my bid and rest easy. (5/9/2008)
Question:
I MEANT A TOW TRUCK FLAT BED.FELIX (5/9/2008)
Response:
Will be rather difficult without a forklift. (5/9/2008)
Response:
i can load it in to my flatbed tow with straps the same way i tow cars without the use of forklifts. let me know if you want me to bid. it will save you money (5/9/2008)
Response:
I will pick them up for you in my tow truck is tha ok? (5/10/2008)
Question:
Hello Shipper, Are these machines on wheels? Alyssa (5/9/2008)
Response:
No. (5/9/2008)
Response:
Hello Shipper, Do these need to be moved by a pallet jack or forklift? Alyssa (5/9/2008)
