Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Is there a problem with the load date? Thanks, bostruck. (5/8/2006)
Response: No, I talked to the seller and he advises it would be much easier to load on a flatbed truck, rather than a box. He has a forklift to cross load from the trailer where the tower is now. He also advises that it's currently raining pretty hard, which could pose difficulty for today, maybe even tomorrow. He is in no hurry to get it moved, so I thought I would give it some more time to see if a flatbed will become available. Thank you for your bid. Joe (5/8/2006)
Question: Thanks for the response. Sorry we could not help. Good luck with your shipment. Bostruck. (5/8/2006)
Question: My other bid has not confirmed. Thought I would mention there are two of us to load & would take us about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. If things should change for you let us know & I will resubmit. Thanks, bostruck. (5/8/2006)
Response: It looks like we won't be available to accept delivery before Monday AM, and will not be here for the weekend, or Friday. The seller is the person concerned about the "box" truck, I think for loading purposes. If you feel comfortable with loading, I will re-contact him, but the load would have to be picked up there during business hours, and delivered here before this friday, or after next Monday (AM), time is really not an issue other than making sure someone is available at both ends. The heaviest 2 pieces of this load are those "constructed" tower sections, the 10' one is about 300lb and the 20 ft is 594lb, but he has a forklift to move those, so I don't see much problem. The other pipes are 175lb or less, and the cross braces, etc, are probably 30-85 lbs ea, depending on size. Joe (5/8/2006)
Question: We can load tomorrow during business hours & deliver next Monday. I do understand the sellers wanting to load a flatbed, would certainly be easier, however we can fit it onto our truck with a little effort. I will place another bid, just let me know. I am about 1 hour from Winston-Salem. Thanks, bostruck. (5/8/2006)
