Shipping Overview
Shipping a privacy fencing order is different from standard parcel delivery. This page explains how Perimtec shipments are packaged, how delivery is scheduled, and what you should plan before delivery day.
Shipping Resource
Receiving Your Shipment
What to expect when your Perimtec order is packaged, scheduled, and delivered.
What to Expect
Heavy and bulky materials
Privacy fencing shipments are often heavier and larger than standard parcel orders, so freight handling is part of normal delivery.
Boxed and crated for protection
Frame kits are packaged individually with their required components in dedicated boxes. Posts are wrapped in sleeves, and shipping crates are used to help materials arrive in good condition.
Liftgate service on many deliveries
Liftgate service is typically requested for residential deliveries and many installer or contractor deliveries to support safer unloading at arrival.
Delivery scheduling through your local hub
Once freight reaches your local terminal or hub, the carrier contacts you to schedule a delivery window.
Unloading plans may vary for large orders
In rare cases, local hub rules may require customer-arranged unloading or pickup. Larger shipments may also require special unloading arrangements.
3 Ways to Receive Shipment
Pickup at Terminal
Pick up your shipment at the local freight terminal. Terminal staff can typically load crates onto your trailer or vehicle.
Deliver to Contractor's Location
Ship to a contractor or installer location that is prepared to receive freight and unload crates.
Deliver to Jobsite
Deliver directly to the project site when unloading equipment is available on site for receiving crates.
Planning Notes Before Delivery Day
- Where the shipment will be received (terminal, contractor yard, or jobsite).
- Whether unloading equipment is available for your delivery method.
- Whether liftgate service is needed and confirmed with the carrier.
- Who will be present to coordinate and accept delivery.
