So, the next question I have is about shipping one of these lifts. They of course ship by freight truck which presents a problem for my location. I have no means to unload something like this and for

Unloading the lift without a forklift is a real problem. I was able to have the truck back up to a neighbor's loading dock and we used his forklift to drag it out. We then put car rollers under each

I've done this with farm equipment. Make sure that you and the seller agree on what the shipping is and what you are paying for it ahead of time. I bought a PTO driven chipper through Northern Equipm

This is heavily dependent on lift design and how it comes shipped, but when my four post came, I unloaded it by hand using two friends and a little help from the driver. From the minute it backed in

Wayne, I still have mine in the package and I can take pics of what this looks like when it's shipped. Note, it weights about 1200lbs. And it's LONG! It's very hard to handle. I was able to do it wit

Trevor's experience matched mine exactly. Two helpers and I did most of the work. The ramp with the cylinder was the worst - by far! The driver helped with that one though the three of us could have

That would be helpful Inch if you don't mind. Unfortunately I don't have a forklift or other "unloading" implement, and as Gila and Inch point out this thing is long, heavy and unwieldy. The supplier

The lift will probably be delivered in an enclosed truck to the terminal where it will be unloaded and stored for you to pick it up. Due to the length of the lift, they will probably pick up one end

I bought mine from stinger and have been very happy with it - It is the four post style - when it came we unloaded with a standard forklift from one end - clearly labeled as "FORK THIS END ONLY" a li

When I had my AutoLifters delivered I booked the local towing guy, who brought his flat bed over, backed it up to the semi, winched it over (see photo) to the flat bed from the semi, then he backed

It's been thirty years since I was in this line of work but this was routine. Crated or uncrated goes in and out of enclosed trailers, sometimes balanced diagonally on one fork. When productivity wa

I concur, use a local towing company with a roll-back trailer. A friend had his 4 post lift delivered that way, and the whole process went smoothly. He had the lift set in front of his garage, we unp

Yes, and in my case I kind of end up disappointing them. I'm willing to share my lift for friends, but inevitably when somebody wants to use it I have some horribly paralyzed LBC stranded on it. It's
