Anyone ever had a tool chest delivered from HF? I want one of the U.S. General 72” boxes. They are over 500lbs and was thinking about what a pain it would be to pick it up.
Then I checked the website and they’ll deliver it to me for $95. I’ll pay that any day. But would they just drop it at the end of my 300’ gravel driveway or would they drop it in my garage for me? I can get it moved either way but trying to figure out what their delivery entails. https://www.harborfreight.com/72-in-x-22-in-triple-bank-roller-cabinet-black-64003.html |

It’s up to your ups guy mine got dropped off in the middle of the driveway in a box on a pallet
|
|
I went to the store and got my 44" top and bottom. My dad and I took it out of my truck bed by ourselves, wasn't that hard.
|
|
It will be up to the carrier. Probably will go freight.
I'd call hf and ask what carrier they use, and then ask that carrier if they offer that. It's usually up to the driver. But in my experience, if you can be there when they deliver, $50 bucks will go a long way to having it delivered right where you want it. |
|
Ps. I have a few boxes from them (not that exact one) and they are fantastic.
|
|
It'll arrive LTL freight on a truck with a lift gate. They will set it on the ground behind the truck, and should be willing to back their truck up to your garage, assuming a large truck can get to your garage.

|
If your not in a rush, wait till fathers day, they will probably come out with a 20% off coupon.

Just a warning. I picked up mine in person and had to open 3 sets before I found one with no dents, and all functional drawers.
If you get it delivered, I would open it up before the driver leaves. |
|
Ditto. Good boxes for the $$$
|
|
|
If you have a local store, go pick one up and inspect before you load it. My last HF order had to be returned to the store because it was a POS. FWIW it was the newest floor jack.
Sometimes you have to pay more for a lift gate. So your shipping quote may be off. |

Does harbor freight use multiple skus for the same item?
I just bought a 44” bottom cabinet. The sku I was rung up for is 64133 but on the box it’s 64281. Doesn’t say series 2 on the box but it does say 22” deep which is what the series 2 is. So, did I get the series 2 44” ? |

Colors
Cashier rang you up for the skull they know because they sell so many |

View Quote I have no experience with the larger chests, but I had no luck with having one of the tool carts delivered. Both the original one shipped and its replacement were damaged badly by UPS. |

I bought the 72" box a few months ago. I have a trailer with flip down ramp.
They loaded it with the forklift, and I strapped it down. Biggest pain in the ass, getting it off the pallet it ships on... The wheels ar off the ground, it sits on wood blocks under its frame. On e off pallet, rolled it right down ramp and into garage. |

If you don't have a truck to use then $95 is worth.
When I bought mine it was loaded into my truck bed off the harbor freight dock. It was very easy for the wife and I lower it out of the truck bed. Now that I know how easy it unloaded I would do it again by myself if i had do, though gravity would have more say in the process. |

Same here.

The 44” I bought was 60 or 70 off. They have a good deal on the 30” roller carts as well. With the 44 I can add stuff to it to end up like this. ![]() |

Not just not in stock because they sold them all, they get like 1-2 a week (HF manager told me as much) and typically don't get any in on shipments right before they are going on sale. None of the other local stores ever seem to have them either and NFW am I paying almost $400 to have the whole pile shipped. |

Got this 300lb thing out of the truck. Was a pain doing it with the wife. The tractor I keep putting off would have been nice.

I've purchased two of the 72".
Both came LTL truck, you have to pay more for the liftgate service if you don't have a forklift or pallet stacker. |
|
It'll go freight. That means dropped at the end of your drive.

Husky Industrial from Home Depot. Got a 52” last November for $800. 600 lbs empty. Awesome box for the price.

Was bolting the casters on the only assembly required? The 5 drawer cart is a lot more...interesting to put together. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Glad I didn’t if assembly is annoying. Think I need to get the 44” top and side locker first. |

Am I the only guy here with a forklift in his home garage? Deliveries like that are a breeze.
|

I bought one, they loaded with a forklift on my 18ft trailer.
I unloaded it with my front end loader via tractor. It’s a heavy bitch. Good look getting it out of the crate. May need to use a rolling jack. |
|
My work box is the 5 drawer cart with a side cab hanging off it. The cart is super easy to put together.
|
|
I have two 5 drawer carts. One at work, one at home. Both blue.
They are legit. It's a bit small for what I need at work but very well built. |
|
Two of the five drawer carts worked perfect for most of my hand tools. Very happy with them.
