Delivering Your New Spa
If this is your first hot tub purchase, you might be wondering how we deliver your new Bullfrog or Clearwater Spa. Most weigh in the range of 450 - 1,200 lbs. and, of course, are rather large objects. However with the right equipment, experience, & knowledge of your spa's construction, they are not difficult to deliver. We have provided photos & some commentary to help you prepare and relax, knowing we will professionally install your hot tub.
We use Spa Dolly™ equipment, exclusively made for spa deliveries, from BCI Manufacturing in Hugoton, KS.

By the way, Bill is in one of them. :-)

Most spa deliveries are made in 1 of 3 ways. Approx. 60% are through your gate. We will put your spa on it's side on our Spa Kart™ and roll it into your backyard, where we will lay it back down on heavy duty "furniture" dollies for final positioning.

| Another 25% of deliveries involve more open yards and/or double gates where we can either drive or hand roll our Spa Dolly™ trailer. In these situations we will often slide your spa off the tongue of the trailer, again on to furniture dollies for final positioning. |

Elevated Decks
In some 10% of our deliveries, usually involving elevated decks, we have to get "more creative." In most cases, using ramps, a winch and/or block & tackle, we can install these without the use of a crane (hence saving you money).
Cranes
Finally, a few deliveries do require the use of a crane. These usually involve very high decks or roof installations. You might laugh, but we have installed hot tubs on the roofs of partially buried concrete homes, and as high as 5th floor Condo roofs. Though there is the additional cost of a crane, we work with Alamo Crane and this is not as expensive as many think; generally it is in the range of $300 - $500.
This delivery in Leander cost $421.
