Questions for this shipment:

Question: I HAVE AN OPEN TRAILER. I CAN P/U EARLY AND DELIVER SAME DAY. WOULD THIS WORK? (10/8/2006)

Response: I am not sure. Give a good bid and we'll see. (10/8/2006)

Question: hi my name is tim. im interested in moving your cabinets.i have a 7x16 enclosed trailer but it would take 2 trips for me.(need 24ft) 20 on 1 load, 10 on the other. im sorry i dont offer insurance,but im trying to figure a feasible way to work this out for the both of us.please let me know if i can be of any assistance.i am somewhat local.thanks (tim) (10/8/2006)

Response: Thanks and enter a bid if you have one. Thanks (10/8/2006)

Question: Hello, I may have a truck in Atlanta next week. If I have enough space available, price $395.00. Is someone going to be available to help the driver load/unload? Good day. ALsuperstore.Good day. ALsuperstore. (10/8/2006)

Response: We can offer no help in loading since we are in Alabama. We can assist in unloading though, if you needed and asked for it in your bid. $400 is more than it is worth to us since it is only a short drive to Atlanta. If the bid were very resonable we could drive to Atlanta and either load or assist in loading. Thanks again... (10/8/2006)

Question: the pickup location says they have a loading dock, is their a way to get them outside on the ground.(i have no way to get them off the loading dock onto the ground).i would hand truck them into my trailer and stagger them so they wouldnt shift. thx. tim (10/8/2006)

Response: The pickup loaction also has ramps to drive into the warehouse. It is huge and a state ran facility. We purchased these from the State of GA and you will have no problem in doing what you desire. Thanks... (10/8/2006)

Question: thanks for your quick reply. thats what i needed to know.does that seem like a fair proposition.trying to figure a way to get your other shipment but it would cost me too much in fuelup and back.thx (tim) (10/8/2006)

Response: It is a too much money for this load. It was originally 151 cabinets and now there is only 30 or so left. We don't have an exact count since they are in a government warehouse and they meet us there by appointment. Your trailer sounds like it would work on both ends but we can't do anything on Saturday or Sunday with this load. Thanks (10/8/2006)

Question: i live 40 miles south of your pickup.if their is more than 30 ican still do for the same money as long as its not over 40 units (10/8/2006)

Response: Let's see how other bidders respond. We didn't expect anything over $300. We ship a lot of stuff and a single trailer load on a loarger trailer would come out cheaper for us. We can unload at our end. I think we better see how others bid. (10/8/2006)

Question: making 2 trips with my trailer would be my downfall. i want to help you out but my fuel would be my biggest expense.not counting wear and tear and my time etc.i want to work with you on this cause it might lead to some other work down the road. thx (tim) (10/8/2006)

Response: If you can do it for $300 I will let you do it. We have many other item in the Atlanta area we purchase all the time. In fact, we have a pallet of goods in Athens and a pallet in Atlanta right now that need brought here. And that is just in the Atlanta area. I have made several trips to Kennesaw and other areas in the recent months and would love to find someone reliable in the Atlanta area. We found someone a month ago but there trailer is down with a broke axle. Let me know if you want the job. (10/8/2006)

Question: my trailer has 2 axles.(TIM) (10/8/2006)

Response: You would need two axles since the cabinets are pretty heavy. (10/8/2006)

Question: im afraid if i bid $300 i will bite off more than i can chew. u-ship charges us a flat fee of 7.9%(23.70) for all shipments.paypal another 3%(9.00) $267.30 is what i gotta look at.gas is cheap here($2.07)but i burn diesel($2.59) i would like to do business with you. im trying to figure out all the factors.if i could get in all in 1 load i wouldnt hesitate but 20 pieces will cube out my trailer.leaving 10 pieces to complete the haul.i want to make this profitable for the both of us.thanks (tim) (10/9/2006)

Response: Thanks Tim. We would pay on delivery, which it is up to you if you wanted payment through paypal. It is up to you what you decide. Thanks... (10/9/2006)

Question: skyhawktransport again. im sorry i did not get to answer fully. yes my bid is for all and also unloading.thanks (10/10/2006)

Response: O won't know till in the morning if they could open the warehouse. They asked for us to call a day ahead of time. (10/10/2006)

Question: im not trying to be nosy, but his trailer is 76x162,thats 2 wide(72inches)162 divided by 18 inches deep is 9.thats 18. 12 will not fit in the back of a pickup truck.the decision would be yours.(im not trying to curve your decision)sorry i canceled,getting off at 6am friday would of made for to long of a day making 2 trips. thanks for your time and patience,good luck. (tim) (10/11/2006)

Question: We will be in that area the week of the 23rd if service is still needed we will bid $350 this is for loading and driving and help on the other end. Thanks, MJ (10/11/2006)
