Standard Auto Lift & Equipment works with some of the top carriers to ensure you have not only the best freight rate on our products, but also quality and careful shipping on your new Standard Auto Lift & Equipment product. If you have any questions about our shipping policies or would like a freight quote, please call our automotive service equipment specialists at 888-839-8899.

Standard Auto Lift & Equipment does not own or operate the trucks that ship our equipment. Most of our products are shipped on common or LTL carriers and require the proper equipment (forklift, tractor, etc.) to unload. The drivers are required to move the equipment to the rear of the trailer but are NOT required to help unload the equipment.

Standard Auto Lift & Equipment will only ship to commercial locations with the proper unloading equipment. We have worked out a deal with our carriers to allow pick-up at their terminals. In most situations we can find one of our carriers terminals close to your location. Picking-up at the carriers terminal is usually the easiest way to receive your new equipment. Just pull up with your trailer and they will load the product for you. If you do not have access to a trailer, you could also contract with a local roll-off tow truck to pick up the equipment and deliver it to your home.

NOTE: All freight company accessorial charges (residential delivery, lift-gate, etc.) are the responsibility of the purchaser. Standard Auto Lift & Equipment will NOT be responsible for any extra charges.

Shipping Damage: Standard Auto Lift & Equipment ships our product FOB origin, freight prepaid and add. Once the equipment leaves our warehouse it becomes the property of the purchaser. Filing any damage or missing part claims with the carrier are the responsibility of the purchaser and must be done within 48 hours of receiving your new equipment. Standard Auto Lift & Equipment will assist you in filing any claim forms with the carrier but we cannot actually file the claims.
