Buying Live Rocks

Say if i buy quite a number of live rocks from CF, do they do delivery or must i lug all the rocks back in the car?

and if i choose to lug the rocks back, will they pack individual rocks in bags with saltwater so that there is minimal die-offs?

Coz in the past i buy rocks a piece at a time...so just wrap in plastic bag and go...not sure what happens when buying quite a number of pieces :)
