Larger and heavier furniture items may require freight delivery. Unless inside delivery or another upgraded service has been arranged, freight shipments may be delivered by tailgate/curbside service. With this type of delivery, the carrier brings the shipment to the rear of the delivery truck, and the customer is responsible for unloading the product and moving it into the residence or building.
Inside delivery may be available for certain Broward Design Center products for an additional charge. Availability, service level, and pricing depend on the product and delivery location. Inside delivery or other upgraded delivery services may also extend the estimated delivery timeframe.
