Short answer
Qualifying small parts may ship as parcels, while frames, platforms, systems, and specialty equipment may require palletized or other freight service. The written quote should identify the shipping assumptions for the actual products and destination.
Product form drives the shipping discussion
Hardware and compact replacement items present different packaging needs from long braces, platforms, frames, complete towers, or large specialty platforms. Quantity can also move an order from parcel consideration to palletized freight.
Describe destination and receiving access
Provide a complete commercial or project destination, access limitations, receiving hours, appointment needs, unloading capability, and contact information. Residential, restricted, remote, or controlled sites may require additional review.
Information checklist
- Exact products and quantities
- Complete destination
- Commercial or project-site access
- Dock or unloading capability
- Delivery contact and hours
Use the written quote as the shipping record
Carrier, packaging, freight class, service, cost, estimated timing, and included delivery services must be confirmed. General website guidance is not a delivery promise.
