Liftgate Service

Detailed Explanation

A liftgate is needed whenever an end has no loading dock and no forklift. It is a separate accessorial from residential delivery, and buying one does not include the other — the liftgate takes the pallet to the ground and nothing further. Several carriers attach it automatically to residential stops: Estes on any piece of 50 lbs or more, A. Duie Pyle at 100 lbs, and Roadrunner, Forward Air, and Saia on residential pickup and delivery generally. Capacity is finite and can be lower at a residence than at a business, so heavy or overhanging pallets should be confirmed with the carrier before booking.
