SHIPPING

We ship wicker to customers anywhere in the US using a variety of methods:

  • Greyhound Package Express (GPX) - Smaller items like a single chair, rocker, small to medium size table, lamp, small to medium size sofas, etc., can be shipped by Greyhound Bus to a Greyhound (or affiliate) Terminal that you designate. You have to pick the piece up from the terminal in most cases. Some terminals have arrangements for delivery to your home, but you would have to check on that at your designated terminal. We have had excellent success with shipping via Greyhound Package Express (GPX). They are fast - usually 2-4 days anywhere in the country. Holidays and busy travel seasons take longer. Pricing is reasonable.

  • DHL / FedEx / UPS - We utilize these services for smaller items including small to medium size tables, chairs, rockers, lamps, etc. These service deliver to your door in a week or less. We have had excellent success with these services.

  • Transit Systems Inc. - TSI - TSI is a service that arranges for a commercial shipper, such as Bekin Van Lines or VIP Logistics, to pick up one or more pieces of wicker from my place and deliver it/them to yours in a blanket wrapped condition. The shippers are experienced with handling antiques and will get the pieces to you in 4-6 weeks. We have had excellent success with TSI.

  • uShip - uShip is a service that we have just begun using. We place a shipment order online to be viewed by thousands of shippers and movers. Those who are interested place a bid for the shipment. I then choose a bid and contract with that shipper. The price will vary depending on location, number of items, time frame and other factors. To date we are very satisfied with this method of shipping.

  • Personal Service - On occasion, depending on our schedule, where you live, etc., we might pick up or deliver in our own vehicles. We do travel from Florida to New England and from Florida to Michigan as well as other parts of the country.

We pack your wicker carefully and thoroughly before it is shipped. We wrap in bubble wrap, plastic wrap and shipping paper, utilizing styrofoam or peanuts, and usually box or clad the piece in cardboard. You will be satisfied with our packing.

Once your wicker leaves us we track it and keep you advised of its progress. We pay attention to detail throughout the entire process.
