I want to purchase a tv from BJs, but it won't fit in my car, the box is pretty large 68in by 39 in, any idea how i can get it home to the heights?

BJ's doesn't offer delivery, and the same TV is more expensive online.

Edit: I went with Task Rabbit, it was $35 for an hour

Rent a van from home Depot at the Holland tunnel or U-Haul across the street for $20 or uberXL

Get a friend, get a dolly, hand truck, or belt straps and take the light rail. Or a bus if there is one.

From items purchased in the store? I asked an associate and they said they don't offer that.

You can order online and get it delivered, but the issue is, the tv is on sale in the store and not online

put the box on the roof of your car. Buy "racheting straps" from Harbor Freight (to secure it), and place a THIN mattress or a blanket between the roof and box, so it doesn't leave scratches. I have moved LOTS of things this way.

Oh, man, great shot! Citi Bikes sure do need better baskets, but something that would comfortably carry a huge TV is maybe overkill for most of us!
