PLEASE place your order as soon as you know what you want! Your credit card is NOT charged until a few days before the trip when the order is actually compiled!  Orders are fill in the order which they are placed, so remember to order early.

Here’s how the road trip deliveries work! Place your order online, by phone, or by fax as early as possible. Approximately one week before the delivery day, you will be contacted by phone or email to confirm the meeting place, and you will be given a time window for our arrival at that location.  You are responsible for being at that location at the beginning of the time window. Please make sure you know where the stop is prior to the trip and be there waiting when we get there!! IF YOU ARE UNSURE WHERE YOU STOP IS, PLEASE CALL US PRIOR TO THE DELIVERY DATE! Late customers affect everyone by slowing down every subsequent delivery.  Be sure that we have your current cell phone numbers, and we will call if there are any substantial delays on our end. Orders that are not picked up on time will be forfeited.

Listing of the Rest Areas we will be stopping at:

Q: Will you stop anywhere other than rest stops?
A: No.. Please allow me a few paragraphs to explain why; this is a big issue and we catch quite a bit of heat over it. 

1) If you have not had the pleasure of schlepping a trailer, you may not realize how cumbersome they are. They cannot be
....maneuvered just anywhere and you do not have rapid acceleration. It can literally be impossible to cross lanes of traffic
....in time for the intended goal, and then there is the issue of where in the heck can you turn the thing around to go back.
....Rest stops allow for very easy access for trailers by having semi and RV parking areas.

2) It seems and sounds easy, but many business do not look favorably upon others conducting transactions in their parking
....lots. I have been asked twice to stop meeting customers in parking lots of a gas station and a Cracker Barrel. And if you
....think about it, they are not being unreasonable. On my first GA/FL trip I met people at a Cracker Barrel and arrived just in
....time for the lunch crowd! We had paying customers blocked in, and there wasn't enough room for the people meeting me
....to park. This truly isn't fair to the business or their customers. Also keep in mind that our stop last time in Calhoun took
.... almost 1 1/2 hours to unload and we met 16 people!

3) We are asked about meeting in a church parking lot. I am not in favor of this. I was meeting people (with permission) in a
....church parking lot. After 6 months I was asked to discontinue at that time as members of the church felt it reeked on
....money changers at the temple.

4) Finally, there is the all important issue of time. We are trying to streamline these trips as much as possible; the more
....stops we add and the more variable the (trailer) driving/parking situation, the greater the chance for delays. Please
....understand that I am not saying we will never make additional stops (the Atlanta area in particular) but for the July run,
....we are going to stick with rest stops.

Q: Will you make detours to other stops (i.e. Jacksonville) if the orders are large enough?
A: Yes, we will consider such, but remember that the profits from the order must be significant enough to pay for our gas and
....time. Contact us for the required order amount.
