    Default Large item delivery service

    Hi,

    We are currently looking into internet selling for our furniture. We have had lots of good feedback about the furniture but the only thing that is letting us down at the minute is a good value delivery service.

    We can deliver locally in our van but it's the longer distance deliveries that are troublesome. We have found a couple of companies offering tailored furniture delivery (2 man team including installation in correct room) however prices are coming in at around £95 per delivery for a 6ft wardrobe.

    Does anyone know of any companies in California that do this so we can be sure we've got the best prices & value service & aren't just wasting money?

    Thanks,

    UPS Freight, Fedex Freight, Yellow Freight and others do that kind a work. Not sure what it costs.

    Dang the trolls are getting smarter. Posting a seemingly legit question from a 4 post wonder before getting an advertising type reply from a 3 post wonder who only posted in reply to the same original poster. Almost suckered me in as well.

    Of course the follow up hannahmontana poster missed one of the original questions. I wonder if they still bill for complete advertising coverage?

    Hey there Rawlco, I was wondering if you were still on the board. I am assuming that your are still with TMC. Anyway, hope you are doing well.

    Just in case the OP is legit...

    I know one of the companies in my home town ships medical beds (the beds you find in your doctor's office) via UPS and they pay UPS to assemble it at the delivery location. Expensive... but if that's what you want, you're going to be paying for it.

    I'm not sure why someone would "message board advertise" a trucking service on a message board for truckers- seems like a waste of time.

    WOW. You have GOT to fix your signature. It totally throws the justification off on any thread you post.

    I believe he has the signature known as "yet another message board glitch."
