    Be fair though, if you paid for something and the shipping was supposed to include inside delivery, or assembly, or delivery with a moffet to get it where you needed it, etc, wouldn't you be peeved if a guy with a lift gate and a hand powered pallet jack showed up and said he was contracted for nothing more than curbside delivery?

    Being in the industry you should know it's not his fault but I imagine you wouldn't be happy with the situation.

    Especially anything BIG. Like a zero turn lawn mower. Or furniture, appliances...ETC.

    Lawn mowers, and other mechanical items. I will buy local, where I can also get it SERVICED.
