Hi All,
Is anyone going to hooks in the next week? I need 2 crates picked up. The lot is 29" x 27" x 4" (L x W x H) and weighs ~350 lbs. I can pay fuel. Thanks in advance!
Chris

I might be able to help out. I don't have any plans on going out there to pick anything up but I would love a reason to go out there and take a look at what they got there. When does it need to be picked up?

Tim,
Yep, that sounds like a great plan. I love the SS Shuffle as you called it! :)

I was hoping you would say next week..... :( I've got to make a run Friday to OKC to get some stuff I bought there and Friday is my only day off during the week besides Saturday and Sunday. Sorry. I really wanted to help.....

Thanks anyways ARY.

I just spoke with the lady at Hooks. She told me it is due to be picked up by the 25th. I was counting the weekends and the holiday, so it turns out I have a little more time.

Is anyone else close by that can make the trip? All else fails, the lady said the UPS store in Texarkana picks stuff up there all the time. I could probably pay them to pick it up and hold it.

If they weren't closed on Fridays I would gladly pick up for you. If you can arrange for someone to pick it up and hold it, I'll go down there on a Friday or Saturday and get it.

Anyone else close by? I guess I will have to give the UPS store a call tomorrow to see if they can get it picked up and held for a while.

Chris, I have an appoitment now for the 30th. They are closed for inspection Tues-Friday of next week, and Monday is booked,.....so you may can sweet talk them into holding them till I get there the following Wed.

Try it. :D

If Frodo can't get them let me know. I can always do it on a Friday. I know this Friday the 25th I have to work but I can make sure to have the following one off. I'm not too far from Hooks- about a 2 hr or so drive so it would be no big deal.

I am going down on the 29th to pick up my flatbed and a compressor, another 350lbs should be manageable if needed. I can haul it back to Russellville and store it until you can have it picked up.

Thanks for offering, James. I am trying to get it to Timntrucks so he can bring it to the Georgia Rally. Frodo will see him before he heads east, so that should work best.

LMK if you still need for the item to be picked up. I have to go view my truck to make sure anymore parts don't walk off my truck until my euc clears. I may be taking a truck load of tires to the GA rally but I have to work out the details.

Thanks for the offer, broman. I finally got everything cleared with the GL folks and Frodo is going to pick it up on the 30th. I will definitely keep you in mind for any future lots.
