What is Tailgate Delivery?

Many freight companies have trucks with a specialized rear platform called a tailgate/liftgate. This is a hydraulically operated platform that can load and unload products without having the need for docks or forklifts. This is convenient for more remote areas, residential locations or commercial facilities that don’t normally receive heavy freight.

Is Tailgate Delivery available in my area?

It is possible that the freight carriers in your area do not offer tailgate delivery. If this is the case, we will work together to find an alternative solution so that you may still receive your products in a way that works for you.

Who should select Tailgate Delivery?
