Depending on size, they really aren't all that heavy. We have a decent sized blasting cabinet at work that on a good day, two guys could pick up. A good day. LOL You can specify that the delivering truck have a lift gate. I think it may cost a little extra, but your back will thank you. Or, I have all my stuff shipped to work whenever I order anything, big or small. Fork truck to lift it down from the semi, pop it in my pick-up, use the engine hoist at home or slide it down a ramp to unload. Real big stuff, I borrow the stakebed truck from work with the lift gate. Doesn't help you much, but maybe give you ideas.
