Shipping
and Handling
Our cabinets are shipped by motor freight. Currently, this
is the most
economical method of shipment. Drivers are only required to deliver
the
shipment to your address. Each delivery situation is different,
but as a
rule, don't expect much help from the drivers. (However, they have
been
known to accept a gratuity for special services). To be safe, our
advice
is to have someone besides yourself to receive the shipment.
A delivery time will be confirmed with you by the freight company.
Payment
for freight charges will be due upon delivery or by prior credit
card
arrangements with the freight company. We do not collect or charge
for
freight charges.
If you do not have any available help you can normally order a “lift-gate”
truck when you schedule your delivery . It’s a truck equipped to lower the
shipment off the truck. A small dolly or handtruck is all that is needed
to move the crates once on the ground.
If you have relationships with certain carriers we will be happy to ship
via the carrier of your choice.

The Hobby Hideaway armoire is fully assembled in our plant with all
options and accessories included (where applicable) and no further
assembly is required. However, for shipping purposes, we must remove
the upper cabinet from the lower cabinet. Each of those two cabinets
remain fully assembled and each are crated on pallets for shipping.
Depending on the number of options and accessories ordered, the lower
cabinet (on a pallet) weighs approximately 185#. The upper cabinet
(on a pallet) weighs approximately 220#. A pair of side cabinets (if
ordered) is shipped on a third pallet and weighs approximately 125#.
