I tried the note option for my sub and they refused to leave it. I kinda live out in the country and normally UPS will just leave the package outside, or on bad weather days leave it on the front porch. I think when the package is valuable (I'm assuming they know how much the package is insured for), they are hesitant to leave them.

When you order them from Axiom, or if you've already ordered them, Call Axiom and tell them to HOLD for pickup. Then Fed Ex will contact you when the arrive. From there, either borrow a vehicle from someone else, or make 2-3 trips. Heck with today's deals and interest rate options, go trade your car in for a 4x4 Truck, you live in WI....
good luck from your Iowa neighbor...

I picked up my M60's, QS8s and VP150 at Axiom, they easily fit into my Altima. What type of car are you driving?

They would not fit in my Honda Accord...originally.
Had to get them with the wife's dealer demo van (at the time).
Big boxes...
Know anyone with a van or SUV that the seat are removable or retractable?

Wow, thanks for so many replies to a boring subject. This forum rocks! My favorite...
[Quote from snakeyes] Send them to my house i will take the day off from work. i will even break them in for you as well as give you a detailed report of how well they sound in my house, daily.
let me know if this offer works for you. LOL. Funny, I never thought of asking someone to help me, either someone with a van/truck or someone to tag along to get the speakers in both our cars. I must be too independent!

I had mine delivered to the worksite...I got to check out the condition they were in (water damage to the outside boxes, several holes in the sides, but inside was OK...typical FedEx-UPS "White glove Treatment"). And I got to watch the "Wow Factor" on my co-workers' faces! I had no problem gettin' them home, they were climbin' over each other tryin' to help me get them home so they could hear them. They'd already helped me get the PB2 sub in the truck a couple of weeks before...Go for the "at work" route.
