Shipping Peace Poles

Limestone Peace Pole Lift Gate Delivery

If you don’t have a loading dock, your limestone peace pole will arrive on a truck that has a lift gate.

 This gate can lower your peace pole onto a couple of your furniture dollies on the ground, one under each end of the crate.

Someone in your circle has furniture dollies. People keep them in their garages and basements forever. This $16 one from Harbor Freight holds a thousand pounds. I bought several there 20 years ago and they still work fine.

Depending on the smoothness of the pavement and the experience of the people, it can be helpful to have at least three people rolling it. I move them by myself, but I have had practice. 

When the Simi Valley United Methodist Church in California received their limestone peace pole they took these photos so that they could be posted here to show you how it is done. Wasn’t that nice of them?
