URBAN OUTDOOR FURNITURE

Delivering a large order of urban outdoor furniture to a third-floor walk-up presents a unique logistical challenge. Standard delivery services often end at the curb, leaving you to manage the heavy lifting. For such complex deliveries, understanding your options is crucial. The most common are curbside delivery, where items are left at the building's entrance, and threshold delivery, which brings them just inside your door. For a true walk-up, however, these are often insufficient. The optimal solution is to seek out white glove delivery services. These specialized carriers will not only transport the furniture to your exact room of choice but also handle assembly and removal of all packaging materials. When placing your order, always inquire specifically about the delivery process for walk-up apartments. Be prepared for additional fees, often called "stair charges" or "high-floor fees," which compensate the crew for the manual labor involved. To ensure a smooth process, clearly communicate all access details to the delivery company beforehand, including the number of flights of stairs and any narrow hallways or turns. Preparing the path by removing obstacles can also prevent delays and potential damage. Planning for these specifics from the start will ensure your new urban oasis arrives safely and efficiently.
