alimac23 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hi guys, Have any of you that have had a KK delivered in Oz had any issues with the delivery driver not being able / willing to wheel the crate down a driveway with a slight incline? I was speaking to a friend the other day who deals with delivery drivers all the time and heavy objects and he mentioned that by law they are within their rights to drop the crate at the top of the driveway and nothing else. I’m sure it will be fine as my drive isn’t that steep but wondered if it would be worth borrowing a pallet jack from said friend just in case for delivery day.

Don't stress I know this is an exciting time but it will work out if you need a hand let me know Outback kamado Bar and Grill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonFire Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'll let you know when mine arrives...got a slight incline going down at my place as well. The vessel shipping mine is in tomorrow, reckon the cargo discharge and the load back usually takes around a day and a bit, quick question for KK owners in W.A. how long after landing did you get it delivered home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was delivered the next day after it was cleared. It was 1day on the docks before it was cleared. So 2days in total.
