Tailgate delivery — also called liftgate delivery — is freight service for Edmonton commercial district locations without a raised loading dock. WTM Logistics provides tailgate delivery through its 5-ton truck service.
When do you need tailgate delivery in Edmonton?
Use tailgate delivery when the delivery location has no loading dock, no forklift, or no raised platform — common for retail storefronts, professional offices, and ground-level commercial units.
How does liftgate delivery work in Edmonton?
The truck is equipped with a hydraulic liftgate. At delivery, the driver lowers the platform to ground level, rolls the skid onto it, and lowers the freight safely. This allows dockless delivery.
What freight requires tailgate service in Edmonton?
Palletized freight over 100 lbs. Retail equipment. Commercial fixtures. Construction materials. Any shipment that cannot be manually lifted from a truck bed.
