There are several ways to go about making delivery to your customers depending on you local market and the equipment you have to work with. Here are how some of our current customers handle delivery.
- Unload the bag into you dump trailer or truck and deliver loose in bulk like you may be doing already. The bags have (2) lifting loops on the bottom to facility this. You retain the bag.
- Deliver the full bag. This works well if you have a lift gate or tilt bed equipment trailer. If you use a pallet jack or Dingo, you can deliver right into you customer's garage. No stacking required. Either you include the cost of the bag in your face cord price or charge a deposit.
- Load the bag directly into the customer's truck. Either you include the cost of the bag in your face cord price or charge a deposit.
- Sell wholesale to a retail vendor such as a hardware store or garden center. They typically have a forklift or skid loader to unload. Although your wholesale price may be less, the increased volume and reduced delivery time works well in some markets.
