Worry-Free Furniture Shipping

White-Glove Blanket Wrap Shipping Option - Free!

Four reasons why we recommend this blanket wrap shipping option:

1. The high level of personal service customers receive with this method.
2. Your furniture is shipped and delivered by our award-winning executive moving company.
3. There is no packaging material to dispose of, so the environmental benefit is substantial.
4. We rarely see any damage to furniture that is shipped by our blanket wrap shipper.

Shipping Procedure - you are involved - read on!

• Trained and experienced drivers will carefully blanket wrap each piece of furniture and pack it safely onto their truck.
• Transit may take 1 to 6 weeks depending on your location.
• The shipper will work with you to schedule your delivery within a 4-hour window.
• On arrival, your furniture will be brought into your house, unwrapped by the delivery crew and positioned in any room you choose, any required assembly will be completed (such as setting up a bed), and packing material will be removed.
• On arrival, you will carefully inspect each piece to be sure that no damage has occurred during shipping. 
In the rare case that damage has occurred, customers must note it on the shipper's waybill and contact Vermont Woods Studios as soon as possible.

Furniture Delivery and Inspection

Regardless of the option you choose for shipping, you are required to thoroughly inspect their furniture upon delivery and prior to signing the shipper's waybill.

Your furniture is well-insured during transit. However, we are unable to file an insurance claim without the customer’s notation of the damage on the shippers waybill.

Inspect each piece of furniture individually for damage.

You are responsible for properly describing any and all damages on the shipper's waybill.

If your furniture has been Express Shipped, check the outside of the cartons your furniture is packed in.

• If the boxes show any evidence of rough handling note this on all copies of the shippers waybill.
• If a delivery crew refuses to wait while you inspect the furniture, note on the waybill that the “driver refused to wait for inspection of contents. Final determination of possible damage to contents will be made when packages are opened after delivery."
• Document any damage, no matter how minor, in detail on the shipper’s waybill and have the delivery crew co-sign the waybill.
• Contact us immediately by calling 877-390-5571 and we will assist you. We will ask you to email us digital photos of any damage so that we can best determine how to resolve the situation for you.
• If damage is substantial, refuse the item and have the shipper return it to the sender for repair or replacement.
• Minor damage like a scratch or even replacement of a door or drawer, is best handled through repairs which are done at your home and performed by experts on behalf of the shipper.
• If your shipment is missing any pieces, have the driver note the shortage on the waybill. Advise us of any shortage and we will trace the shipment. If the shortage cannot be located within a reasonable time, the missing items will be replaced.
• Express shipping and handling charges are non-refundable.
