Usually I have to roll it on a dolly into the homeowner’s garage or something like that.
I work for a delivery service, and the other day I ended up having to deliver an entire furnace unit. Normally I do not have to deliver anything like the furnaces or air conditioning systems because the HVAC companies around here tend to do that kind of delivery themselves. However, once in a while they get overwhelmed with deliveries and if that’s when I end up having to do them. I have to admit that these are not my favorite types of deliveries at all. The heating and cooling units are way larger than most of the stuff that I usually end up delivering. They are also much heavier than I like to have to deal with on my own. Usually I do not have anyone riding along with me on my delivery circuit. Whenever I have something like a furnace or an air conditioning system, it takes a lot out of me to try and get it delivered to the right spot. Usually I have to roll it on a dolly into the homeowner’s garage or something like that. It’s even worse when the homeowner is not home and I have to figure out somewhere to put it so it won’t get damaged. Sometimes there is a covered porch, but sometimes there is nowhere to put it at all! That’s when I end up having to sit there and call my dispatch to see what I’m supposed to do. Half the time I end up calling a furnace or an air conditioning unit all the way back to the delivery hub with me just because I could not leave it.
