Wood and Stuffing: A Furniture Blog

When you order new bedroom furniture, then you have to decide how to have the furniture delivered. To make things easier for you, some stores offer white-glove delivery services. While you have to pay for this option, its benefits make it worth the money. Why should you use white-glove delivery?

1. Get Your Furniture Delivered to Your Bedroom

A regular shipping service might not do more than drop your furniture off at your door. You then have to get it into your bedroom. This won't be an easy job if you've ordered large pieces like a bed and wardrobes that need to go in an upstairs room.

Most white-glove delivery services will bring your furniture into a specific room, even if it means going upstairs. So, you won't need to haul heavy pieces yourself.

2. Avoid Self-Assembly Headaches

If you've purchased self-assembly bedroom furniture, then you have to put the furniture together once it arrives. This can be a time-consuming and frustrating job. If you aren't great at DIY, you might struggle to get things right. If you're on your own, you might need to find someone to help you. You won't be able to assemble a large double bed or dresser on your own, for example.

If a company has a white-glove service, then they often do this job for you. They bring your order into your bedroom and unpack it. They then put it together for you. You'll get everything sorted a lot faster and with less hassle.

3. Get On-the-Spot Quality Control

When you get a regular furniture delivery, then you have to check pieces over once you unwrap them. If you find a fault, then you have to contact the store and arrange for the piece to be picked up and replaced.

Most white-glove services check your pieces over when they unload them into your bedroom. If they find a problem, they can contact the store to find out what to do. If the problem is bad enough to need a replacement, they can take the piece away again and arrange a new delivery.

4. Get Rid of Packaging

Large pieces of bedroom furniture, like beds, mattresses, and dressers, come with a lot of protective packaging. You'll have to find a way to dispose of a lot of cardboard, plastic, and padding here. A white-glove service usually takes this packaging away with them. So, you don't have to worry about getting rid of it.

To find out more about white-glove delivery options, contact the bedroom furniture store you want to use and ask about their delivery services.
