A trained crew schedules an appointment with you, carries the item into the room of your choice, unpacks it, assembles it, and removes all the packaging.

In furniture retail, it means the delivery doesn&#8217;t stop at your curb or front door. The crew takes care of the whole &#8220;last mile&#8221;: getting the item into your home, into position, and ready to use.<\/p>\n<p>White glove delivery is most useful for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Large or heavy furniture<\/strong> such as futon frames, sofa beds, sectionals, mattresses, and wall beds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fragile or high-value items<\/strong> that are easy to scratch, dent, or damage in transit.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Furniture that needs assembly<\/strong>, especially pieces with moving mechanisms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Difficult access<\/strong>, like walk-ups, narrow hallways, and apartment buildings with strict delivery rules.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What Is Included in White Glove Delivery?<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/what-is-white-glove-delivery-service-white-glove-checklist.jpg\" alt=\"A checklist outlining steps for a white glove delivery service including scheduling, assembly, installation, and protection.\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>A full white glove service typically includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Scheduled delivery window:<\/strong> you&#8217;re contacted in advance to set a delivery time instead of waiting all day.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Room-of-choice placement:<\/strong> the crew carries the item into the room where it will be used and positions it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Unpacking:<\/strong> boxes, wrap, and padding are removed in your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assembly and setup:<\/strong> the item is built and set up, with the mechanism tested if it&#8217;s convertible furniture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Debris removal:<\/strong> all packaging is taken away.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Final walkthrough:<\/strong> you inspect the item with the crew before they leave.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Not every service labeled &#8220;white glove&#8221; includes all of this.

Usually limited to smaller, lighter shipments.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Threshold (in-home) delivery:<\/strong> the crew brings the box just inside, to the entryway or first dry area.

A convertible bed assembled slightly wrong is a mechanical problem. Futons, sofa beds, Murphy beds, and storage beds rely on alignment: the hardware has to open smoothly, close squarely, and hold weight both in motion and at rest.<\/p>\n<p>Small assembly errors, like hardware tightened out of sequence, a rail set slightly out of square, or moving arms that look symmetrical but aren&#8217;t, often don&#8217;t show up on day one. They compound with every conversion:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The frame opens unevenly or catches partway.<\/li>\n<li>One side carries more stress than the other.<\/li>\n<li>Locking or support points don&#8217;t seat correctly.<\/li>\n<li>The mechanism wears faster because the motion is slightly off each cycle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A misassembled futon or wall bed can also create pinch points and unstable support. That&#8217;s why white glove with assembly is worth the most on pieces that move. Browse <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/convertible-sofa-beds\">convertible sofa beds<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/futon-sets-and-packages\">futon sets<\/a> and you&#8217;ll see how much the mechanisms vary.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>A convertible piece should feel boring to operate: smooth, even, and predictable. If it feels stubborn on day one, something is off.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>White Glove Delivery in New York City<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/furniture-stores-that-deliver-and-assemble-furniture-delivery-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Two professional movers in uniform pushing a dolly carrying a large box with an armchair image\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>In NYC, the route from the truck to the room is often the hardest part of the job. Experienced city crews plan around the building, not just the order.<\/p>\n<h3>Walk-Ups and Narrow Stairs<\/h3>\n<p>In a walk-up, weight isn&#8217;t the only challenge. The crew has to manage the turning radius on landings, stair rail clearance, and control of the item so it doesn&#8217;t scrape walls, dent banisters, or twist under load. Many delivery services charge extra for walk-ups or cap the number of flights.<\/p>\n<h3>Elevator and Doorman Buildings<\/h3>\n<p>In elevator buildings, the crew needs to know the cab dimensions, the door opening, padding rules, and whether the service elevator is available during the delivery window. Doorman buildings run smoothly when everything is arranged in advance, and stall at the curb when it isn&#8217;t. Before delivery day, confirm with your building:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Approved delivery days and hours<\/li>\n<li>Service entrance instructions<\/li>\n<li>Elevator reservation<\/li>\n<li>Certificate of Insurance (COI) requirements<\/li>\n<li>Contact numbers for you and the building staff<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tell the store about building rules when you place the order, not the morning of delivery. Buildings that require a COI or restrict delivery hours often need a higher service level.<\/p>\n<h2>Futonland White Glove Delivery Options<\/h2>\n<p>Futonland offers several delivery levels. Full details and current pricing are on the <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/shipping-options\">shipping and delivery options<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<h3>New York Metropolitan Area<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>White Glove Delivery &amp; Assembly:<\/strong> delivered by Futonland&#8217;s delivery team to the room of your choice, with unpacking, setup, a walkthrough of how to operate the furniture, and packaging removal. You&#8217;ll get a call the day before to set a 3-hour delivery window. This service is for elevator buildings without COI or delivery-time restrictions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Premium White Glove Delivery &amp; Assembly:<\/strong> the same service, plus walk-ups (up to 4 flights of stairs) and buildings that require a COI or restrict delivery hours.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extended setup:<\/strong> items that need longer assembly, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/wall-beds\">wall beds<\/a> and wardrobes, can be scheduled with extended assembly time on request.<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/our-services\/new-york-city-services\/rush-delivery\">Rush delivery<\/a>:<\/strong> for when you need a specific date and time window, subject to availability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Removal services:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/our-services\/new-york-city-services\/mattress-removal-service\">mattress disposal<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/our-services\/new-york-city-services\/furniture-removal-service\">furniture removal<\/a> take care of the old piece when the new one arrives.<\/li>\n<li><strong>In-store pickup:<\/strong> available from Futonland <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/store-locations\">store locations<\/a> on the Upper West Side, in Greenpoint, and in Newark.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Nationwide<\/h3>\n<p>Outside the NYC area, Futonland ships through delivery partners with options from curbside up to White Glove Delivery &amp; Assembly. A White Glove option without assembly is also available, which covers room-of-choice placement, unpacking, and debris removal only.<\/p>\n<p>Look for <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/free-shipping-futon-sets-and-packages\">free shipping on futon sets and packages<\/a> and other promotions that reduce delivery costs.<\/p>\n<h2>How Much Does White Glove Delivery Cost?<\/h2>\n<p>White glove delivery costs more than curbside because it covers skilled labor, a two-person (or larger) crew, equipment, time on site, and packaging disposal. The main factors that affect the price are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Item size and weight:<\/strong> a sleeper sofa takes more handling than an accent chair.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Assembly complexity:<\/strong> pieces with many parts or mechanisms take longer to set up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Building access:<\/strong> walk-ups, tight turns, and COI or time-restricted buildings add time and coordination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Distance:<\/strong> delivery costs vary with your distance from the warehouse or store.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add-ons:<\/strong> old furniture or mattress removal, extended setup, and rush scheduling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Many retailers, including Futonland, offer free or discounted delivery on qualifying orders.

A common guideline is about $10 to $20 per crew member, with more for walk-ups, long or complex assemblies, bad weather, or a crew that goes out of its way to help. If the delivery went poorly, a tip isn&#8217;t expected. Report any issues to the retailer instead.<\/p>\n<h2>White Glove Delivery FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>Does white glove delivery include assembly?<\/h3>\n<p>Usually, but not always. Some white glove services include only placement, unpacking, and debris removal, and many cap setup time. At Futonland, White Glove Delivery &amp; Assembly includes setup, and longer assemblies can be scheduled on request.<\/p>\n<h3>Does white glove delivery include removing old furniture?<\/h3>\n<p>Not typically. Haul-away is usually a separate add-on. In the NYC area, Futonland offers mattress disposal and furniture removal services.<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s the difference between white glove and room-of-choice delivery?<\/h3>\n<p>Both bring the item into the room you choose. Room-of-choice delivery leaves it boxed. White glove adds unpacking and packaging removal, and usually assembly.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does white glove delivery and assembly take?<\/h3>\n<p>It depends on the item. Futonland&#8217;s standard White Glove service includes up to 30 minutes of setup, which covers most futons, sofa beds, and beds it sells. Wall beds, wardrobes, and other knock-down furniture need extended assembly, which can be scheduled on request.<\/p>\n<h3>Do I need to provide tools?<\/h3>\n<p>No. A professional crew brings its own tools and equipment.<\/p>\n<h3>What if my furniture arrives damaged?<\/h3>\n<p>Inspect the item with the crew before they leave. Note any damage on the delivery receipt, take photos, and contact the retailer right away. See Futonland&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/futonland.com\/shipping-returns-and-cancellations\">shipping, returns, and cancellations<\/a> policy for details.<\/p>\n<h3>Is white glove delivery worth it?<\/h3>\n<p>For large, heavy, or convertible furniture, and for anyone in a walk-up or a building with strict delivery rules, usually yes. You avoid moving and building the piece yourself, the mechanism is set up correctly, and there&#8217;s no packaging left to deal with.<\/p>\n<h2>The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<p>White glove delivery takes your furniture from the truck to the exact spot you want it, fully set up, with nothing left to clean up. Before you order, confirm what&#8217;s included, especially assembly, stairs, and building requirements.
