Additional Delivery Fees

Time Definite Fee: This fee may apply if you request a specific delivery time outside of the freight carrier's normal business hours (usually 9 am – 5 pm). The fee can range from $35- $150 or more depending on your location and request. Because the freight carrier determines available delivery times, certain days and times are not available in all areas.

Stair Carry/Extra Labor Fee: If your item is carried inside your residence, unpacked, or carried up any flights of stairs by the carrier, this fee may apply. The carrier may also charge additional fees if steep uphill or downhill slopes lead to the entryway of your residence or business. These fees vary and can exceed $100.

Deliveries to Apartments: The carrier will take the item to the building's loading dock or the nearest ground-level entry. Depending on the building's design, the carrier may leave some deliveries at the main office.
