A dining table from a Hudson Valley maker, a sofa from a Manhattan showroom, a full designer install in the Hamptons. Fine furniture in New York does not survive standard freight — and it should never have to. Custom Crating & Logistics now crates, packages, and white-glove delivers furniture across the New York tri-state area, from our crating facility in Mount Vernon, NY.
One company, one point of contact: we build the crate, we deliver the piece, we place it in the room. No hand-offs between a crating shop and a delivery crew, no finger-pointing if something arrives less than perfect.
We serve furniture brands, to-the-trade showrooms, interior designers, galleries, and auction houses across New York City, Westchester, Long Island, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
Custom Crating & Packaging for Furniture
Most furniture damage happens before the truck moves — in a crate that was never built for the piece. Our Mount Vernon crating facility builds made-to-measure crates for exactly what you are shipping:
- Custom wooden crates for casegoods, tables, consoles, and oversized pieces
- Soft-pack and blanket-wrap packaging for upholstered furniture
- Glass, mirror, and stone-top crating with proper bracing and cushioning
- Export-ready ISPM-15 certified crating for international shipments
- On-site crating at your showroom, warehouse, or gallery when the piece cannot travel unprotected
Every crate is photographed before it leaves. If a piece is worth shipping, it is worth crating properly.
White-Glove Furniture Delivery, Room of Choice
Our New York crews deliver like the building is the job — because in New York, it is:
- Room-of-choice delivery and placement per your floor plan, including walk-ups and prewar buildings
- Furniture assembly, installation, and artwork hanging
- Freight-elevator scheduling and building coordination handled before delivery day
- Certificates of insurance issued to your building’s exact requirements
- Floor, doorway, and elevator protection on every job, with booties in finished spaces
- Full packaging and crate removal — we take everything with us
Two-person crews, blanket protection, and photographed proof of placement on every delivery.
Designer & Showroom Services
Designers and showrooms run on timing. We run a receiving operation built for it:
- Multi-vendor receiving at our Mount Vernon facility — every piece logged, inspected, and photographed on arrival
- Short-term storage so early arrivals wait safely instead of crowding your space
- Consolidated delivery: instead of five vendor trucks across two weeks, one coordinated install day
- Scheduled installs matched to your project timeline, including Hamptons and second-home deliveries

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you deliver to Manhattan high-rises and co-ops?
Yes. We issue certificates of insurance to your building’s exact requirements and coordinate freight-elevator windows and board approvals before delivery day.
Can you crate a single piece, or do you only handle full projects?
Single pieces are welcome. One custom crate for one dining table gets the same build quality as a full showroom order.
Do you receive from multiple vendors for one install?
Yes — that is one of our core strengths. We receive, inspect, store, and consolidate multi-vendor shipments into a single coordinated delivery and install.
Do you handle Hamptons and second-home deliveries?
Yes. We deliver and install across Long Island and the Hamptons, scheduled around your arrival, not ours.
Can you crate for international shipment?
Yes. Our ISPM-15 certified export crating meets international shipping requirements, and we coordinate with your forwarder.
Do you remove the crates and packaging?
Always. Every delivery includes full debris, crate, and packaging removal.
