Taking Delivery Soon, Questions about unloading

[IamScotticus]

I definitely support any unloading option thst doesn’t involve a forklift.

Accidents.  Bad word.  Oops. Another bad word. Oh, Sh!t!  Two bad words. I have seen plenty of accidents.

 

Load that stuff in a large moving truck with a hydraulic lift on the tail.  It can handle the engie.  Every thing else can be unpacked in the truck box and walked off. If the crates are staged in a reasonable order, the chassis will be last and the wood can be cast to the front.   Then all wood can be hauled off. Or made into cool man cave beer tables.

I received mine in single large crate with chassis & all (less engine). Shipped to my mechanic, who slid (by hand) the crate onto his flat-bed tow truck.

After a little head scratching in my garage he tipped the trailer up. Lowered to the floor and we gently slid the crate off. Discovering that wood crates slide nicely on the aluminum trailer deck.

I ended up hiring Craters and Freighters. They're going to deliver it with 2 trucks with liftgates. Paying more to do that than do it myself, but it'll be worth the peace of mind I think.
