Door to Door (D2D) Quotes and Service:
The following is necessary to accurately quote a door to door shipment:
1. complete origin and destination addresses, including unit numbers.
Residential addresses can result in "accessorial" residential surcharges. These can range from a few dollars per box on a parcel shipment to $25.00 or more per freight shipment.
For freight shipments, where the residence or business does not have the equipment to load or offload the freight truck an "accessorial" charge for a lift gate or other service required to load or unload the freight can be added.
2. accurate weight (lbs) and dimensions (inches) of:
each parcel if the shipment is being shipped by parcel carrier (UPS, FedEx, USPS);
the pallet, crate or individual shipping unit if going by freight carrier;
3. complete and accurate description of the goods being transported
is requested a complete packing list of the pieces being shipped and commercial invoice or pro-forma invoice listing the specific goods and their individual value
estimated weight.
