4. Who is providing the pallet? Do they have to make/bring?
5. Assume you want it set back up on the pallet to ship. This means basically reversing the process and rebuilding the entire bed - AND securing to ship safely! Screwing down ballast trays, securing canopy, etc etc etc. Time, materials AND expertise to do that safely.
Keep in mind - it will take several hours to remove the bed and several hours to rebuild. This is a whole day job at least! Add in travel time - they may have to build in an overnight hotel stay along with their mileage, meals and time.
As an FYI - a bed this size will be too big for a liftgate. So plan on having a forklift available to get it on the truck or however you plan for it to leave the salon on the pallet. |
1 tech + helper and myself
2 tech is local to the city
3 tech has worked in salon that bed is being removed from, he said no prob. removing.
4 tech is providing pallet
5 he estimated 4-6 hours to break down and rebuild
I will be transporting in 8 by 15ft enclosed trailer metal ramps and electric pallet jack to load..
The tech was referred by salon owner. She said he did the install 7 years ago when salon was opened and has done all maintenance on beds since opening.
