What is the difference between Residential and Business Shipping and Terminal Pick Up?
Business shipping and Terminal Pick Up are generally the same cost. Obviously for business shipping the carrier delivers to your place of business. A business is defined by the trucking companies as: “A commercial location, open to the public regular business hours, daily”. A “residential business” does not qualify. Terminal pick up is when the customer picks up their item at the local trucking terminal. For residential shipping the carrier will deliver to your residence but this usually costs between $30 and $80 more depending on the location.
