OK, so not every vendor has trucks that deliver, and for the ones that do deliver, you may need it sooner.
Or you may not be on the local route for the compnay truck.
What do you do?
UPS has the hize limits, and a nice price tag too.
Have you actually asked your vendors what companies they use to ship? The willactually give you an answer that includes more than UPS.
Some are even cheaper and some do not have the size restrictions.
Most are regional shippers. Like they service one or two states. Or even just one city and it's suburbs. For instance, I use Pacific Messenger. They service LA, San Diego and San Francisco (and all that's inbetween).
In Florida there are simillar North-South delivery services.
So the questions are:
Who do you use aside from UPS (or Fedex)?
Have you actually asked your vendors who they ship via aside from UPS (or Fedex)?
There are alot of compnaies that need long product. The other main thing that Pac Mess carries are Blinds.
Unlike mldg, that can't be cut 5 and balance. And they need it shipped inexpensivley.
