What does minimum shipment mean?
A minimum shipment is the lowest flat fee any carrier will charge for shipments weighing less than 150 lbs regardless of what our discounts allows. Q. Are the weights listed in your catalog or online shipping weights? NO. The weights listed in our catalog or online are individual product weights ONLY. The shipping weight for all products is higher than the product weight. For smaller ladders and pike poles, add 5-10 lbs for shipping weight. Any ladder over 24′ in length or multiple ladders shipped together are crated in a wood box. A general rule of thumb to figure out shipping weight is to take the weight of the product and multiply by 1.5 to get crated weight. If you need approximate shipping weight, call our office. Q. I’ve received my invoice and there is a S/H fee listed, what is that? This fee has been added to cover our extended costs for packaging, paperwork, routing instructions and continued negotiations for better freight rates with carriers. Back to top Q. What is the load
