Lift Gate Delivery

Bridging the gap between our truck and your ground level. Windy Expedite provides specialized lift gate solutions for retail stores, construction sites, and residential locations across the USA and Canada.

When do you need lift gate delivery?

For residential deliveries, small businesses, or when handling heavy items at ground-level.

What Is Lift Gate Delivery?

Not every pickup or delivery location is equipped with a shipping dock or a forklift. Standard semi-trucks are designed to back up to a warehouse bay, leaving a 4-foot gap between the truck floor and the ground. Our Lift Gate Service solves this challenge. We utilize hydraulic lift mechanisms installed on the rear of our Straight Trucks and Box Trucks to safely lower your freight from the truck bed directly to the curb or ground level. This ensures your heavy pallets are handled safely, preventing injury and cargo damage.

Ideal Applications for Lift Gate Shipping

This service is essential for “final mile” deliveries to non-industrial locations. We frequently provide lift gate support for:

• Retail & Shopping Centers: Delivery of stock directly to the back door or curb.
• Construction Sites: Offloading equipment and materials where no dock exists.
• Residential Deliveries: Heavy furniture or appliances delivered to driveways.
• Small Businesses: For offices or workshops without warehouse infrastructure.

Equipped for Safety and Efficiency

At Windy Expedite, safety is paramount. Our fleet includes modern Box Trucks and Straight Trucks equipped with heavy-duty hydraulic lifts capable of handling significant weight. Every driver is trained in:

• Proper pallet jack operation.
• Safe clearance procedures.
• Secure freight handling to prevent tipping during the lowering process.
