LTL plus the last mile, priced as one delivery
Shipping a sofa, appliance or display to a home or business usually means an LTL quote, a separate final-mile vendor and a spreadsheet to add them up. The platform prices both legs together: LTL to the delivery hub, then a two-person team to the door, the room of choice or full assembly.
Short answer: Final-mile white glove delivery moves large items the last leg to a home or business with a two-person crew. In the GetShippingRates platform you enter the origin and the delivery ZIP, choose a service level from curbside to white glove with assembly, and get an all-in price that combines LTL to the local delivery hub with the final-mile delivery, plus door-to-door transit time.
How a white glove quote works
Where it's going
Origin ZIP and the delivery ZIP. The platform finds the final-mile hub that serves that address.
Pick the service
Curbside, threshold, room of choice, white glove without assembly, or white glove with assembly and debris removal.
One all-in price
LTL rates to the hub stream in, each shown with the final-mile charge added and the total days to the customer's door.
Everything between your dock and their living room
Five service levels
From a curbside drop to a two-person team that carries it in, unpacks, assembles and takes the packaging away.
Two legs, one number
The LTL line-haul to the hub and the final-mile delivery are added together, so the price you see is the price to the door.
Door-to-door transit
LTL transit plus the final-mile delivery window, so you can tell your customer when to expect it.
Compare carriers into the hub
Every LTL carrier serving the hub is priced, cheapest first, so the line-haul leg isn't a guess.
Residential and business
Homes, offices, stores and job sites, with special instructions for gate codes, stairs and appointments.
One team to call
Armstrong coordinates the hand-off between the LTL carrier and the delivery crew and handles any claim.

Questions we hear
What is white glove delivery?
A premium final-mile service where a two-person crew brings a large item into the home or business, places it in the room you choose, and can unpack, assemble and remove debris. Curbside and threshold are lighter service levels.
What does final-mile delivery cost?
It depends on the item's size and weight, the service level and the destination. A small piece of furniture to a nearby hub often runs from about $100 for curbside to $250 or more with assembly, plus the LTL leg. Price your exact shipment in the platform.
