You have to provide a phone number so that the freight company can reach you. They will call and set up a time to deliver your tank once it's almost to your address. They can't deliver without contacting you. Once they set up an appointment, have someone there for it. They may charge you extra if they have to try to deliver it more than once.
Your shipping address has to be accessible to a freight truck. Freight trucks are the large, semi-trucks that you see on the freeway. They need to be able to drive straight past your address, or they'll need enough room to turn around. There also can't be low hanging lines in the way. The delivery driver will lower your tank out with a liftgate and leave it for you, but you need to get it into your house yourself. It's not too hard. Tanks weigh between 50 and 100 pounds, and they slide around easily enough when empty.
Check out your tank before signing the delivery form. If there's something wrong with it, you need to write it down on the form before accepting it. If your tank was damaged, it's a lot easier for you to get a replacement if you note it down. We can only bill the freight company for a new tank if the damage is noted on the form. Damage during shipping doesn't happen often, but just be aware.
