This quote will provide an estimate of transportation costs, truck quantities, or the space required for your order. However, due to the nature of geosynthetic products, roll diameters may vary. As a result, this variation may affect the quantity that can be loaded per truck. Requests will therefore be estimated based on the most recent available loading data. Please be aware that actual quantities may vary significantly from estimated quantities. Any request made to Customer Service will be handled by our Logistics Department within a reasonable timeframe, depending on complexity, load type, and mode of transportation.<\/p>\n<h4>Customer pickup and required equipment:<\/h4>\n<p>As mentioned, you may arrange transportation for your orders yourself. In this case, you must arrive at our warehouses with appropriate transportation equipment. A space request can assist you in selecting the required equipment. Please note that if you arrange transportation yourself, we will not be able to track your orders or negotiate with the carrier in the event of loss or damage. <span>Your equipment must meet the following standards:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>53\u2019 enclosed trailer (dry box):<\/strong> Refrigerated trailers will reduce loading capacity;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mini flatbeds:<\/strong> Load securement devices must be provided by your carrier, and loaded quantities may vary significantly depending on the equipment selected;<\/li>\n<li><strong>48\u2019 or 53\u2019 open trailer, bi-train, or curtain-side truck:<\/strong> A minimum of 16 stakes is required for all loads.
