Yes. Not all trailers have liftgates. If liftgate service is in high demand your pickup or delivery may be delayed. Liftgates can be scarce because not all trailers have liftgate systems. Often times the trailers that have liftgates are booked several days in advance. Liftgates can add 1-4 days to a carrier’s standard transit time.
