Schram auto parts - Mason, MI

Ask? I would demand that they weigh it, and if it's 150 lbs and 1 ounce, say "Have a nice day."

I don't play with people like that. I keep a tape measure in the truck, and oversize shipments are measured. I write the dimensions on the bill, so hopefully when they get hit with the oversize charges they'll give that junk to some other company.

If someone wants to aggravate ME like that they're gonna pay for it.

 

And now, to close this story, I delivered that engine and tranny today. Someone, I don't know who, had the shipment reconsigned to the Quality Moving and Storage place nearby. I didn't care. All I know is that they had forklifts.

Funny thing is, when I got there I found the guy it was for waiting in the parking lot with a U-Haul trailer. By the time he spent the money for that, and for the reconsignment charges for the shipment if he got hit with any of those, he could have just rented himself a forklift and not even have had to be there at his house when I got there to deliver it. I would have had it off the truck and in his garage inside of 2 minutes.

What's frustrating is that all this could have been avoided if only they would have shipped that in 2 pieces instead of 1. If people would only use a little common sense, it makes everybody's life so much easier.
