Quick question,
I'm having my new shed delivered tomorrow by courier.
The guys only have a tail lift, and the pallets weigh half a tonne.
Am I ok to have it delivered onto the pavement in front of the house and leave it there till the evening ?
Or is it asking for trouble etc ?
presumably delivered implies get it onto you'r property? at least get them to help it onto the drive
if they only have a tail lift they will struggle to drag a half ton pallet off the tail lift onto the pavement.
assuming they have a pallet truck with them get them to put it where you want it.
you dont have a silly silly gravel drive do you?
I've no drive, I've got hedge all round. ๐
My garage is round the corner on another street.
They don't have a hoist, so they can't get it up and over the hedge,
And yeah I really do hope they have a pallet truck !
Mrs Cale is going to be signing for the delivery, so I need to make sure she has a clear plan !
You may be charged with obstructing the highway by the police and or local; council jobs worths,
the pallets may be to big for the pavement and also block the road, is therere space for the delivery driver to park up too unload, with a pallet truck theyre only designed o go over height of about 1 inch or smaller, not a curb, so delivery may be a problem, anyway if its from a major diy retailer, itll be there in the next few weeks in bits, with bits missing, as is per usual, despite what they say about delivery times.
It's from a really good place down south and having ordered it last Friday it's here tomorrow, courier just phoned.
It's a full on Metal chap and is meant to be one of the best.
Pics will follow.
Also gettin hardcore and sand delivered on Friday to make a base, slabs will be here on Sat !!!
You mean you bought a shed and didn't opt for the [i]"Free Erection Service"[/i]?
