Shipping Methods

 

Curbside Delivery

What is Curbside Delivery?

Curbside Delivery is also known as Threshold Delivery. This is our standard delivery method and is included when you purchase any item from us. During this shipping method, your items will arrive unassembled in their factory boxes. The freight company will deliver your items to your carport or entryway, and you will be responsible for getting them into your residence or business. Since furniture is heavy, you may require assistance from a friend or family member. If you have any questions about Curbside Delivery please give us a call at 800-345-7060. 

All orders require a telephone number. Customers will be notified about delivery the same day or a day before the delivery. Certain times and dates are only available with White Glove Service.

 

What is White Glove Delivery?

Most furniture and select non-furniture items that qualify for White Glove Delivery include delivery inside your home, where our white glove delivery professionals will carefully unpack and inspect each item, assemble and place it in your room of choice. Please note that we are unable to unpack, assemble, or install lighting, or wall-mounted items, and certain other restrictions may apply. For your convenience, all packaging materials will be removed. We ask that you inspect your item(s) before our delivery professionals leave your home.

 

Pick Up Policy:

Customers opting for pick up of their merchandise must inspect the items thoroughly before accepting the order. Upon pick up, customers are required to sign a release confirming that the merchandise has been received in satisfactory condition.

 

Please note that Creative Furniture Inc. assumes no responsibility for the merchandise once the pick-up has been completed. It is the customer's responsibility to secure and transport the items safely after the pick-up process. Creative Furniture Inc. is not liable for any damages or issues that may arise post-pick-up.

 

Item Requiring Professional Assembly & Installation:

Our delivery service for wall-mounted items, lighting, heavy mirrors, wall décor, bath vanities, and bath hardware includes bringing the package into the home but does not include unpacking the item(s) and removing packaging from the home, or assembling or installing the item(s). Professional assembly and installation are required. Please refer to the product details for more information. Our White Glove Delivery professionals are not permitted to move furniture currently in your home, nor are they allowed to move or set up electrical wiring, equipment, or wall-mounted items. Please clear the space where furniture or rugs will be placed before delivery. An authorized adult, 18 years or older, must be present during your scheduled delivery window to accept and inspect your items and sign the delivery receipt.   

We will ship UPS/FedEx whenever possible. If your order is large and/or heavy we will arrange a Standard Trucking Service. The Standard Trucking Service is a shipping method, which can be described as a "curbside delivery".

If you are ordering a very large or/and heavy item, please keep in mind that you need someone to help move it.

You will be contacted for an appointment by the Shipping Company ahead of time so that you can plan your schedule accordingly. Shippers are expected to notify you of a delivery day, time, and service options, so you can have the appropriate help available to get your order into your home if necessary. Please note that shipping times are estimated and cannot be guaranteed. If you were not at home when the delivery was scheduled and the freight company has to return your order, a second delivery fee may apply based on the carrier.

You can also make arrangements to have your order picked up and shipped by your preferred carrier from our warehouses in Edison, New Jersey.
