Sofa fulfillment combines the largest cartons in most furniture catalogs with fabrics that stain, tear and crush easily. We store, ship and deliver boxed sofas, modular sectionals, accent chairs and upholstered beds with handling built around those risks.
Storing boxed sofas and sectionals
Boxed sofas and sectional pieces should be stored flat, in the orientation shown on the carton, with nothing heavier stacked on top. Upholstered cartons compress under load, and compression can permanently flatten cushions or bend frames before the item is ever sold.
We set stack limits for every upholstered SKU and keep them on positions separate from dense case goods. Modular sectionals are set up as components, such as corner, armless and chaise pieces, so customers can buy configurations while inventory is still tracked accurately at the component level. Fabric swatches and replacement cushion covers can be stored as their own SKUs and shipped by parcel.
Delivery that protects fabric
Most damage to upholstery happens in the last few feet: dragging a carton across a driveway, opening it with a blade, or setting a sofa down on a wet porch. Room-of-choice and white glove delivery reduce those risks because the crew carries the piece inside and unpacks it in the room where it will live.
For sectionals, crews can connect the pieces with the brackets you supply and position them as the customer wants. Packaging is removed, and any concerns found at unpacking are photographed immediately so issues such as a snagged seam can be addressed with a cover or cushion replacement instead of a full return.
Labels and compliance documents
Upholstered furniture sold in the United States must meet the federal flammability standard for upholstered furniture, which adopted California's TB 117-2013 and requires a permanent compliance label. Many states also have law tag requirements for stuffed articles. Those obligations belong to the manufacturer or importer, and the labels must stay intact through fulfillment.
We never remove or cover product labels during repacking or returns processing, and we can hold your compliance documentation alongside SKU records so it is available when a retailer or marketplace asks for it.
Frequently asked questions
Can a boxed sofa ship by parcel?
Some compact or modular boxed sofas fit within parcel carrier limits, but many exceed them or trigger large-package surcharges. We compare parcel and home delivery for each SKU and choose the safer, more economical option.
How do you handle modular sectionals?
Each sectional piece is tracked as its own component, so customers can order configurations and every piece in an order ships together.
Can white glove crews connect sectional pieces?
Yes. Crews can connect sectional pieces using the brackets and instructions you supply as part of white glove delivery.
