1. Unloading Equipment on Site
Because heavy-duty steel livestock equipment ships on flatbed trailers or palletized LTL freight, you will need a tractor with pallet forks or a skid steer at your farm rated to lift 2,000+ lbs to unload your chute, sweep tub, or gate bundle from the trailer.
2. Driveway & Trailer Access
Before your order ships, our dispatch desk confirms your delivery window and entrance layout. Make sure your farm gate or barnyard lane has clearance for a truck and trailer to pull in, unload on level ground, and turn around safely.
3. Free Shop Pickup in Bethelridge, KY
