For one, delivery fees help retailers to cover the cost of delivery services and associated labor. This allows businesses to provide more options to customers, including offering a white glove service, in which furniture is delivered in-home and assembled, as well as offering customers the chance to take advantage of expedited delivery and shipments.
In addition to helping cover the costs associated with delivery services, furniture delivery fees can also provide additional safety and security for customers. Since the delivery fee controls the company’s total cost of delivery and also holds customers responsible for their purchases, retailers are better able to guarantee that their customers will be happy with their purchases. For example, if customers are unhappy with the furniture upon delivery, they can request a replacement or a full refund, minus the furniture delivery fee. This helps customers to feel secure in the knowledge that their purchase is protected when they are paying for a delivery fee
