White Glove Delivery
Furniture will be delivered into your space and placed as specified. Typical delivery takes 1–3 weeks for Area 1, and 3-5 weeks for Area 2 from date of shipment within the contiguous U.S. Includes an appointment with a 4-hour delivery window coordinated by an agent, unpacking, assembly, placement in your room of choice and removal of packing materials. Excludes wall mounting, electrical work, structural changes, assembly of shelving and removal of non-ddc items. An authorized individual must be home during your scheduled delivery window to accept and inspect your items before our delivery professionals leave your home, and to sign the delivery receipt. In the rare event of any imperfection noted at the time of delivery, ddc will replace the item or schedule a furniture medic or service technician to repair the issue at no charge to you. Please email customerservice@ddcnyc.com for more information.
Preparing for Furniture Delivery
It is your responsibility to ensure that all furniture items will fit through any access points such as doorways, stairways, hallways, elevators and around corners into the desired location.
Scheduling Your Delivery
Once you are notified that items are ready for delivery, we ask that you take receipt of them within 30 days. At the time of scheduling, please notify ddc, by emailing sherry@ddcnyc.com, of any special requirements necessary to ensure a successful delivery. This includes, but is not limited to, the need for small trucks to navigate narrow roads and driveways, restricted delivery time frames due to local ordinances, gated entry access, proof of insurance for high rise and condominium buildings, multiple flights of stairs and service elevator reservations.
How do I know if my building requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI) prior to delivery?
Many high-rise and apartment buildings require a Certificate of Insurance prior to any delivery. To facilitate smooth delivery, it is best to contact your property management in advance to verify COI requirements. Once you have done so, please email sherry@ddcnyc.com.
What if I am unable to receive delivery when it is ready?
If you know at time of order placement that you will not be able to receive delivery as scheduled and need to delay, please email sherry@ddcnyc.com.
When do storage fees apply?
We allow 30 calendar days for you to accept your order without fees, after which you’ll begin to incur daily storage fees per day, per order. To avoid any additional charges, please work with our delivery agents to schedule an appointment within that 30-day period. If you’ll be unavailable to accept delivery for an extended period of time, or if you have any questions, please email sherry@ddcnyc.com.
