Anyone had Amazon ship them a grill?
Worse Case:
End of driveway delivery to the EDGE OF THEIR TRUCK. If you don't have a
loading dock at your house capable of meeting the back of a semi, not their
problem. You will need to figure out how to get it down without damaging it
and how to get it to your house.
Best Case:
Driver wheels it up the driveway on his handtruck and delivers it to your
front door, with a"'howdy ma'm" and a toothy smile.
Most Likely Case:
Driver stands at the end of your driveway bitching about these deliveries,
helps you lower it to the ground and waits patiently for his $20 tip. At
which point he'll help you load it into your truck or wheel it to your
garage.
I had my snowblower delivered this way. I freaked out when I fully
understood what I had bought (I won't do it again) and figure $20 smooths
most wounds.
