We had our big cage order last year shipped freight, I forget at what point it was a better value to have it sent freight than standard. We had it sent to my husband's office, since they had a proper loading dock (and some freight companies won't deliver to a residential address), and he drives a pickup with a full bed.
Unless confirmed otherwise, assume for freight shipments that the driver will only get your goods to the tail of the truck and you have to unload it yourself (if its been palletized you do not have to take the whole pallet off in one go, you can split the wrap and take individual boxes off, within reason).
