Eshopps mariner tank shipping?

[exnisstech]

Just wondering what shipping method they used and did the freight company contact you to schedule delivery? Mine would probably be easy for them as I have forks in my tractor so I could unload at the street. No trucks can get down our drive. Tank that's on my short list is a 100g lagoon. I sent an email to eshopps but decided to post and ask here while I'm waiting for a reply.

Mine contacted me. Old Dominion was the freight company if I recall. They gave me a 4 hour delivery window and arrived about 10 minutes into that time frame. I believe my was freighted from California or Washington since I'm in AZ. Other side of the country might use a different freight company.

The trucking company called me to schedule delivery. I had it about a week after ordering from SaltwaterAquarium.com. They go on sale often usually 15% off.

I pulled the trigger on an M100 last night. Premium Aquatics had 15% off and they have sales tax included in their price so it ended up being a 22% discount.

Did they deliver inside your garage? What model did you get? Thanks.

I got the m130. They did put it into my garage. I helped him push it up the driveway. He stayed until I opened it to make sure nothing was broken and signed the ticket.

Nice. I am considering the M130 as I like the tank dimensions and glass thickness/bottom bracing. Also currently on sale. How do you like the stand? Do you think it is durable and has good build quality? Thanks.

The stand seems pretty heavy duty. The wood feels solid, not the particle board cheap feel. I was impressed when I first opened the crate. The tank is very well built and just impressive to look at.

I think it likely depends on the policy of the delivery company. The company that delivered my M70 brought it right up to the garage but wasn't allowed inside the garage.

Good to hear, me and the wife been researching online and R2R for the M130 and M180 replacing the RS reefer 300. How many people you think will need to move the M130?
