The most efficient way to ship your order is to a business (commercial address) with a loading dock.
A liftgate is used to lower your hostess station from the truck to the ground.
You need a lift gate unless you have a forklift or loading dock or you ordered only one (1) hostess station and will have two people available at the time of delivery to unload it.
Freight carriers charge an extra fee to deliver to residential zones because they are harder to access. Shipping freight with a residential service also adds a day to the lead time because a delivery appointment is necessary.
Residential delivery with a lift gate does not include inside delivery.
For these reasons, we recommend delivering to a commercial address whenever possible.
Yes, because it is in a residential zone you will need a residential delivery.
