These include items such as Tall Machine control tripods, 10' long Laser Rods (lenker type), and the like. These items may not be able to be shipped via regular ground methods such as FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or U.S.P.S and will require a Freight or Truck delivery. All Free shipping promotions only apply to items that can be shipped via FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or U.S.P.S and not by Freight or LTL methods.
Truck Line Deliveries, Large Items & Residential Addresses
Truck carriers charge additional fees for delivering to residential addresses. This is in part due to the necessity of loading shipments to smaller trucks that are better able to navigate residential locations. Delivery is to the base of your driveway or off of the truck's lift gate. The customer is responsible for moving the product from that point. Benchmark AZ is not responsible for delivery if the product cannot be unloaded from the truck. Benchmark AZ cannot be responsible for refunds of this freight, and the customer will be responsible for any fees necessary for a 2nd delivery attempt. We will make every attempt to advise you if this looks like it may be a problem. We handle very few products which cannot be shipped by FedEx Ground, UPS Ground, or U.S.P.S.Notice
