Shipping Costs
Shipping charges vary by item. Shipping charges are based upon the total weight and/or dimensions of the item and the shipping method selected. Unless otherwise specified there is a minimum shipping charge. Please contact a sales representative for more specific information about shipping charges.
For items over 65 pounds, the shipping charges are calculated on "loading dock" to "loading dock" delivery only. They do not include "Inside Delivery" charges. Inside Delivery charges are additional costs for bringing the machine from the delivery truck to the location inside the facility where you are placing the machine, and in some cases includes removing a shipping pallet. Sometimes a truck with "Lift Gate" is all that is required to make a delivery. Lift Gate delivery refers to a delivery truck fitted with a hydraulic lift mechanism attached to the body of the truck, generally the back, which is used for moving the item from the cargo area of the truck down to street level when there is no loading dock available. The item will be left at the location next to the lift gate of the truck.
If you require an "Inside Delivery" please contact a sales representative who can provide you with a quote.

Delivery & Carriers
Items weighing less than 65 pounds are generally shipped via ground courier (e.g. UPS, FedEx, etc.) unless otherwise specified; items weighing in excess of 65 pounds actual weight or which qualify as over 65 pounds by dimensional weight are generally shipped via common carrier truck (e.g. NOT by UPS, FedEx, etc) unless otherwise specified. Sometimes, pickup at the carrier�s terminal can also be arranged.
Please note that items being delivered by common carrier truck are delivered to the loading dock only. Delivery does not include a truck with a Lift Gate or Inside Delivery service. ( See Shipping Costs above. ) If you require additional delivery service, please contact a sales representative.
