South Jersey/Philly Group Buy... ROUND 11!

[Sergood]

So close.....so close

 

[longke]

No problem.

 

[ryan0914]

I have some tarps and a bunch of contractor bags also a bunch of us can show up early and put them in cars or or trucks or whateven and sort them out from there.

 

[arch1tect]

I can help shovel out but i have a jeep we can load up and meet somewhere else if need be.

 

[ferman]

Quick update from Jeff - he talked to the office personnel and there are no dock workers today. They are closed. Which means no one can unload our pallets for us anyway. So it's a no go for today. Too bad.

 

[lordura]

Sorry fellas.... mother nature must not be a homebrewer.

 

[ferman]

....or maybe she is mad that we all feed her "used" beer in our backyards. LOL

They usually have a storage charge for keeping pickup orders for more then a few days after scheduled pickup.

My pickup truck holds 1700 lbs payload, which a pallet weighs 2300lbs. A fork lift driver can just put the pallet right in the bed. I also have tarp and rope to wrap the whole pallet if you want to move it to an indoor location. If you want to just go somewhere real close by, I think it would handle the whole pallet for a short distance.

I will be using homer buckets for those who asked for the sacks, so no problem on my end.

 

[ferman]

There are two pallets this time, oldbrew.

 

[OLDBREW]

There are two pallets this time, oldbrew.

we could make two trips if need be.

Maybe there will be no extra charge because of the weather. I think Jeff has someone else that has a pickup too.
Have to wait to see what the deal is at NEMF and see if we have another pickup area available

 

[ferman]

I too have a full size pickup. Maybe I can help.

Just not today - no one is there to load the pallet on our trucks.

 

[OLDBREW]

If there are no extra charges we can wait until next week.
Last time they wanted to charge a storage fee, so Jeff had to move it over to where he works.

 

[Sergood]

I can help move tomorrow if they are going to charge us.

 

[ferman]

Same here.

 

[ryan0914]

same with me i can help tomorrow if we need to i only have a hatch back but i can carry and make trips... It would be perfect if were able to pick it up from them tomorrow.

 

[BoundForBeer]

I am willing and able too. Not lucky enough to have a pick up but I might be able to get 20 some bags in by my guess.

Next time it'd be sweet if we could set up some kind of email chain/PM chain or something. I am out of state for work and wasn't really able to monitor this thread daily and didn't receive any notification about it until my dad called me just now from the parking lot.

sorry for any inconvience. I figured everyone would see the message posted here. He didn't have to drive to far did he?

there will be no charge. They are closed when we had a scheduled pick up because of the weather so they are going to let me reschedule. Checking the weather reports tonight.

 

[ferman]

Any chance we can pick up Friday evening?

If you look at your subscribed threads.
There is a pull down menu at the bottom of the page that will let you get email notifications when someone posts in the threads you checked off.

 

[lordura]

I'm trying to figure out if Wednesday or Thursday of next week will be best for pick up. It looks like it going to snow a bit all week but there might be a break. I'll check the weather again tonight and send everyone a PM.

I'm also going to look into a covered pickup spot for the next round.

 

[lordura]

so I've checked out the weather just now.... looks like snow in the begining of the week so the best day would be Thursday. How does that day work for everyone? Snow or Shine, we'll just rip those pallets apart if we need to.

It wasn't a big deal, I will just probably have to hear about it once a week for the next few months

 

[ferman]

Thursday is fine by me.

 

[chrisdb]
