Pallet delivery from our planter box factory to a home is not a flat-rate service. The exact cost is quoted after we know the pallet’s weight, dimensions, origin, destination ZIP code, and how the driver must unload it. Because planter boxes are bulky, most full-pallet orders move by LTL freight rather than small parcel. The carrier treats residential addresses differently from commercial warehouses, so a residential surcharge usually applies.
Several charges shape the final number. Distance and freight zone set the base rate. Weight and pallet count determine the freight class. If the home has no loading dock or forklift, a liftgate is often required to lower the pallet to the ground. Appointment delivery, inside delivery, limited-access locations, gravel roads, gated communities, and remote areas can add more. Fuel and seasonal surcharges also change by carrier and date.
As a practical ballpark, a single LTL pallet of planter boxes delivered curbside to a residential address in the contiguous U.S. often falls between $250 and $700, with shorter-zone deliveries sometimes closer to $150–$350 and long-zone or remote deliveries reaching $500–$900 or more. These figures are only estimates. A small, parcel-eligible pallet may cost less, while multiple pallets or oversized planters can cost more. International, island, and white-glove deliveries are quoted separately.
The fastest way to get your actual cost is to send the delivery ZIP code, quantity, pallet dimensions and weight, whether a forklift or dock is available, and any access restrictions. We compare carrier options and confirm the freight charge before shipment. If you can pick up at a nearby terminal or unload without a liftgate, you may reduce the cost. In short, the delivery cost is tailored to your pallet and address, not a single fixed price.
