Special Care Item Listing Information
  • antique refrigerator
  • Description: Nice antique 1950's General Electric Refrigerator. The weight is probably more than 200lbs. Other small parts with it are in it. We are not in a hurry for this, so we can wait for it to be added to a larger load going to California. We can also drive some distance to pick it up, if necessary.
  • Length:2 ft 6 in 
  • Width:2 ft 6 in 
  • Height:5 ft 8 in 
  • Weight: 200 lbs
Packaging:
The coils in the back need to be protected so that nothing dents or bends or scratches them. Also the front and sides and top need a blanket to protect them.
Special Handling Instructions:
This needs to remain upright at all times except for when moved on the dolly. The coils in the back damage easily and need to have a protective space or protection around them. The fridge doesn't need to be shipped by itself, but should be well protected from other things being shipped.
Additional Information: This is being taken from a lake house and the owner of the house needs to be called to schedule pick up. Report a Violation

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Hello Shipper, I can pick up between the 21st and 30th with delivery in 5-15 days for $575. This is door to door service including loading/unloading, blanket/saran wrapping, along with full insurance coverage. Let me know if this works for you so I can place my formal bid and reserve the space in our trailer. Thank you, Michael Frear. (9/13/2009)
Response: I'm very interested. This is a 1950's refridgerator with the coils on the back. The coils must not be bent, so a ridged barrior (like plywood) works with the blanket and saran wrapping. I'm willing to pay extra for this protection. It is heavy, I'm guessing at the weight, probably 200 or more pounds. I'll be giving you the phone number and the address of the people we bought it from and you can ask them an approximate weight. Your schedule works for me. We can't move into our house until after the first of the year. Thanks for your question. Curtis (9/13/2009)
Response: So, When do you need pick up / Delivery to take place? Thank You, Michael Frear (9/13/2009)
Response: Any time between now and the end of the year. It's already paid for. We have garage space available at our home in California. I don't think the seller in MN is conserned either, but you would need to call him to coordinate pick up. By the way, the pick up location is a lake house, and I've never been there, so I don't know what the grounds are like at the pick up location. My grounds in California are all paved. Curtis (9/13/2009)
Response: Then I could pick up anytime between the 20th and 25th of September and deliver with in 15 days... With the Plywood packing I would charge for the cost of plywood (I think its $20 for a sheet) and $20 for buying it and wrapping it. Let me know if that works for you and I will place my bid. Thank You, Michael Frear (9/13/2009)
Response: Yes, That works for me. Go ahead and place the bid and I'll accept it. Then I'll give you the contact info and we can get this started. Curtis (9/13/2009)
