Bree Report post Posted December 21, 2008 My 4000R LA-25 came on a pallet with attached boxes. I picked it up at the freight terminal and had it loaded onto my Dodge RAM. It is a big machine. Have at least two people to unload it and to unpack the machine head. The 16" model will be a little smaller but not all that much smaller. You can uncrate it on your pickup truck and bring it into the shop or house a piece or box at a time. There was a little bit of assembly required but not much. They assemble the critical components. And they will help you if you have any questions or problems. They are quite good at that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
