We’ll go over some of the top franchises and brands so you know who delivers and how quickly you can expect your furniture from places like:
How Long Does It Take to Get Ashley Furniture Delivered?
Ashley furniture uses UPS for smaller items and standard shipping. If you bought large furniture items that require Ashley’s In-Home Delivery it is a little bit more of a process. It usually takes 2 days after your purchase before your delivery date will be scheduled. Depending on how close you are to an Ashley HomeStore, your order will come directly from the store or it will arrive via Ashcomm shipping service.
On average, delivery will take 5-10 business days for items to arrive. In some areas, 1 or 2 day shipping is available, but only for select items in store and online. 1 and 2 day shipping does not include weekends and may fluctuate depending on weather, inventory, and other possible delays.
Even though on demand delivery can be difficult to find for large items, we have some good news.
