Shipping & Freight

Delivery is available to the Lower 48 only; no shipping to Alaska, Hawaii or other US territories. Shipping is a flat rate based on your order total:

  • Orders up to $5,000: $279

  • Orders $10,000.01 and over: $517

These rates cover standard freight delivery to a commercial address. After you place your order, our team will confirm your delivery timeline within 1 to 3 business days.

Liftgate service is required if your delivery location has no loading dock or forklift to unload the freight. If you are unsure whether you need it, contact us before ordering.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access locations, and appointment scheduling may affect handling and extend delivery time.

Lead times vary by product, manufacturer availability, and selected options. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items require additional processing time before they ship.

Please inspect all freight shipments at delivery before signing. If you see visible damage, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before you purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Returns are governed by our store return policy. Because many products in this category involve freight shipping, special ordering, or configuration-specific selections, return eligibility may vary by product and condition. Special-order, custom-configured, used, damaged, or installed items may not be eligible for return.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

The 6280HD Gladiator is the walk-behind for the materials that stop a soft goods machine. Ceramic tile, wood floors and thin-set are what it is built around, and it still takes sheet vinyl and linoleum, so a crew facing a mixed building is not choosing which floors it can quote.

Its slide weights are the working feature. They move to sit forward, which puts head pressure on the shank where tile needs it, or back over the wheels, which is what gives the machine traction to keep driving instead of spinning. That is a jobsite adjustment made in the aisle rather than a specification chosen at order.

Tile removal runs on National's patented carbide tipped shanks, and the machine ships with two different angle attachments so the front end is already set up for both hard and soft goods on arrival. As on the 6280, the head works by orbital action rather than percussion, which is what the supplier credits for the machine's working life.

Common Applications

  • Removing ceramic tile, thin-set and wood flooring
  • Mixed hard and soft goods removal in one building
  • Confined commercial spaces needing a heavy machine on a narrow footprint

Selection Notes

  • Runs on 115 V building power at 14.7 amps
  • Ships with two angle attachments for hard and soft goods
  • Step down to the 6280 Commander for soft goods only at higher travel speed
