Furniture Shipping

Furniture shipping can seem like a big challenge. Furniture is usually heavy, big, or delicate, and thus people are concerned about breaking, expensive prices, and the wastage of time. Conventional moving techniques cannot be trusted all the time, and unless properly supported, you will face delays or damage.

Shipixy simplifies the process. Our packaging is secure, carriers are reliable, and our prices are transparent, so you can be confident of what you are about to receive. Whether it is one chair, a complete dining set, or even office furniture, our team gets your items to their new home safely and on time.

Types of Furniture That We Ship 

Shipixy will also move all types of furniture, including small, lightweight, and heavy furniture. The following are some of the most popular forms of furniture that are transported by Shipixy:

1. Sofas and Coaches

Heavy sitting furniture needs good packaging and handling. We use covers and padding to cover soft fabric or leather to preserve their safety.

2. Beds and Mattresses

We break down bed frames to mattresses, wrapping each component safely. Mattresses are particularly not exposed to dirt and moisture.

3. Dining Tables and Chairs

Dining sets are heavyweight and delicate. Tables are dismantled when possible, and chairs are wrapped one by one to avoid scratches.

4. Office Desks and Cabinets

Drawers, glass, or electronics are common examples of office furniture. We put them into hard crates and cushions to avoid movement in transit.

5. Outdoor Furniture Sets

Outdoor products tend to be heavier and irregular. They are wrapped in weatherproof material to avoid being spoiled by rain or dust.

How Does Our Furniture Shipping Work?

The process to ship a furniture delivery quote is very simple and requires following these steps:

  1. We advise that you clean your furniture before shipping. This eliminates dust, dirt, or pests that might be carried with your stuff.
  2. Delicate items are enclosed in bubble wrap, foam, or blankets. Corners are wrapped to prevent scratches.
  3. Tables, beds, or cabinets are disassembled into large parts to facilitate easy and safe transportation.
  4. Products are packed in tough boxes, crates, or pallets, depending on size and weight.
  5. Shipping information is clearly marked on each package so that the package can be traced properly.
  6. You can also easily get a quote before pickup by filling in shipment information, including pickup and delivery addresses, dimensions, and weight. 
  7. This assists in knowing the precise furniture delivery price and also gives you a chance to select among various delivery options.
  8. Your furniture is loaded by our trained team with the appropriate equipment to prevent damage.
  9. Furniture is delivered by reputable carriers who have been selected on the basis of reliability and safety.
  10. When it gets to your place, your furniture arrives on time in the same state it was at the point of shipment.
