Pool tables are bulky and sometimes heavy. Freight planning should happen before final order confirmation, especially when buyers mix tables, accessories and other amusement equipment in one shipment.
Packing size matters
A table's product dimension helps with room planning, while carton dimension and gross volume help with shipping. Buyers should request packing details before comparing freight cost.
Weight changes handling
Slate and marble configurations are heavier than MDF. This affects local unloading, installation, warehouse handling and sometimes freight cost.
Plan mixed shipments carefully
When tables, cues, balls, arcade machines or foosball tables ship together, the packing list should identify each item clearly and keep accessory cartons traceable.
