A pickup in Batavia, without having to make the trip yourself.
A shop order is ready, an auction lot needs collecting, or a seller has offered a pickup time you can’t make. I can collect suitable items in Batavia and bring them to your home or another agreed address. Batavia is one of Porchbound’s main service areas, alongside Amelia and Eastgate.
For an auction pickup, send the lot number, release instructions and collection deadline as well as a photo of each item. A group of small lots can take up more space than the main listing suggests. For a shop order, check that it’s paid for and ready to be released to someone collecting on your behalf.
Plan the whole Batavia trip.
Tell me where the item is going, even if the pickup is close by. A delivery within Batavia and a collection going across Cincinnati need different plans. Mention a gate, gravel access, steps or a particular loading point if they apply. I’ll work out the drive and handling before giving you a price.
Possibly. Send photos, dimensions and weights for every lot, together with the collection window. I’ll check the combined fit and one-person handling before agreeing.
Can you take a Batavia purchase to Amelia or Eastgate?
Yes, those are core service areas too. Include the pickup and dropoff neighborhoods so I can price the complete journey.
Will you contact the seller to arrange pickup?
You normally agree on the release place and time with the seller. Send me those instructions; let me know if extra coordination is needed.
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
