Kit Shipping and Pick-ups
Information about shipping, pick-ups and kit orders

Here's some additional information about shipping your kit. 

   

Stewart Transport
 A lot of customers arrange their own shipping through a company called Stewart Transport (888-737-4852).  The guy that runs the place is named Collin Stewart and he has done a great job over the years.  Stewart Transport picks up kits from our dock and delivers them to your driveway.

You pay them and the only thing they do for us is take care of you.  Stewart has dedicated trucks with electric cranes so you don’t have to order a crate from us.  We don’t receive any compensation from Stewart for anything.

 
Commercial Freight
 We can ship your kit in a custom made crate via a commercial carrier of your choice.  We have worked with all the major carriers, including Fed-Ex! The crate dimensions are 14’ long x 6’6” wide x 3’5” high and it weighs 1650 lbs. The crate is made of a base layer of 4” x 4” lumber, a floor of ¾” tongue-in-groove plywood.  The sides are 2” x 4” reinforced, 3/8” sheet plywood, and the top is ¾” tongue-in-groove plywood.  Fork truck or pallet jack access is from front or rear.  We charge a crating fee for kits that need to be crated.  This crate is one serious box, it is virtually indestructible. We were recognized for the

quality of our packaging (see “Before You Buy” Kit Car Magazine September 1996) by Petersen’s Kit Car.
 
 

Pick-ups at Factory Five
If you want to pick up your kit at our facility there is no charge.  Our guys will position your kit chassis and body onto your trailer at our facility.  We prefer to do pick-ups on Saturday mornings, but will work with your schedule.

If you’re picking up the kit at our place you also save the crate fee.  Give us a call and let us know your plans if they change from the time you order your kit.
