What are your terms of sale?

contract, or a firm purchase order from one of our authorized
leasing companies. You can download our Terms

Express for any purchase. Credit cards can make your
machinery deposit or purchase quick and easy. We can

How do you handle freight?
Machinery shipments – PRS maintains a fleet of smaller
trucks and trailers for flatbed shipments up to 30’. For
shipments up to 1,000 miles this is typically quicker and
more convenient for our customers. We also work with
truckload and less than truckload carriers and brokers to
handle both domestic and international machinery shipments. Our
discounts with LTL carriers such as Con-Way and Yellow Freight
are substantial and are available to our customers on collect
shipments.
Supply shipments – These time sensitive shipments
are handled by a variety of carriers including FedEx, DHL,
Con-Way, Yellow Freight, and R & L Carriers.
What about leasing?
PRS works with the leading leasing companies and brokers
to find the best fit for our customers.
Leasing can be an attractive way to get the equipment you
need without tying up your credit line at the bank. Leasing
also requires less money down than traditional bank loans. For
instance, a machine that cost $9,000 would be a lease payment
of $215 per month. Most lease contracts start with
an initial payment of the first and last month’s payment. Therefore,
this $9,000 machine could be in your plant, making you money
for only an initial expense of $430.
Do you offer consulting services?
You will always find that the price is right when the experts
at PRS help – because its FREE! Our sales and
engineering staff have many years of experience in nearly
every pallet and lumber application you can imagine. We
work within the framework of your needs, plant, equipment,
and budget. PRS provides valuable insights into maximizing
your current operation, and integrating new equipment. For
larger projects we use the latest CAD software programs to
layout your plant in the most efficient and productive way
possible. Ask your sales representative for more information. |
