The scoop slide is over 90 lbs., 14’ long, but should be easy to pick up in its plastic wrap. Make sure you’ve got the help you need from a few buddies. There are 8 to 9 boxes that weigh 100 lbs. In all, the boxes weigh a total of 1650 lbs., or roughly an average of 97 lbs. There are some major forts and slides that come with this.
You’re getting quite a few components with the Empire Extreme. Seriously, be prepared to organize everything as you pull it apart because you’ll want to make sure every piece is there as you go to assemble it. Within those 17 boxes, you’ll find all the wood, hardware, components, and plastics that you’ll need for the Empire Extreme. This is one very large inventory to take, so we recommend you do it methodically. Before you even begin tearing things apart on the truck, take a ton of pictures of the outside so as not to lose out on any information if something is messed up on the inside. The Empire Extreme comes with 17 boxes along with the 14’ scoop slide.
They certainly have a better use for than you do. Frequently, the freight carrier may leave with the pallet on board. Not everyone is prepared for that large of a pallet, but generally you’re supposed to be ready to deal with it. This playset comes on a 10 foot pallet that is roughly 40 inches wide. You may be able to get add-on services like threshold delivery or lift gate, but they aren’t really necessary. It’s not necessarily the smoothest process to get through, but it’s just how the industry typically works and there are a lot of cost savings in it. The Empire Extreme ships via freight, which generally comes with an appointment that you have to make with the shipping company. We do think that is something that they should consider down the road, if possible, given the size of this swing set. We really do wish that Gorilla did a better job at consolidating their packaging. We don’t mean to discourage you by saying so, and we think that Gorilla Playsets does what they can with so much going on here, so we give it 3 stars. Our Empire Extreme verdict: No way to get around it, no matter how you slice it, this is a big project. Learn more about receiving a playset here. Unfortunately, we have to give this an average rating, because that’s just what it is. Gorilla Playsets, in general, has some pretty harsh unboxing experiences. The shipping and receiving of the Empire Extreme is likely just as extreme as the rest of your playset experience here.
