Hi Guys,I have a problem with my house - we are going to need a crane to drop this thing like 80 feet from the street into my backyard. I bought a hot tub but according to dealer if the install requires a crane, and they can't just wheel it in then I would have to cover the crane cost?Is this standard practice among dealers to not pay for a crane if it needed (eve though they say free delievery)?Let me know thanks. Because I don't want to pay for a crane if I the company should be?by the way the crane cost is about 200-300 bucks.
Free delivery never includes the cost of a crane in my experience. Delivery generally includes 2 guys with a dolly and adequate access to wheel the spa into position.The dealer should have some crane companies to contact and your price seems reasonable.Steve
what would it cost to widen your gate? Might be better off spending the 2-300 on that rather than the crane.
We look forward to the pics!I blame that directly on the dealer. Every dealer should have a pre-delivery checklist which includes the installation details. This would have prevented this and a simple question of your gate size prior to delivery would have saved a bunch of time being wasted.
