    That’s a good thing. Now he has more room for hardwood flooring going to houses that you can’t deliver. :D

    So essentially he gave his customer an ultimatum?! I don't think they teach that technique in business school.

    Varies. The cute couple that is redoing their laundry room on the weekend... 600 lbs skid into their garage I don't even charge them for the lift gate

    Then you have those 3k skids going to a mountain side home delivery where you have to chain up and hand unload the freight cause the pallet is too big, heavy, and awkward for your pallet jack and lift gate.
     
    MACK E-6 and misterG Thank this.

    Be quick to let them know , it was Fedex’s Info and video there that broke the case wide open ! Just thankfully no one was hurt when the one went off in the system . The one lady had ringing in her ears , but nothing major .
