delivered white glove — wherever you sourced it

Why Furniture Shipping Breaks Down

Furniture isn’t a small parcel. Most shipping and dropshipping setups aren’t built for it — Slab & Scale is.

What Usually Goes Wrong
No standard process, no accountability
  • No inspection before it ships
    Furniture arrives in whatever shape it left the factory. You find out something’s wrong from an angry customer, not before.
  • Packaging built for boxes, not furniture
    Marble cracks, glass shatters, and fabric tears in transit when packaging isn’t matched to what’s actually shipping.
  • Pricing takes days, not seconds
    A real shipping quote often means back-and-forth emails, with no way to check pricing before you commit.
  • Returns are a dead loss
    Shipping a damaged piece back across the ocean rarely makes financial sense, so it becomes a write-off.
How Slab & Scale Is Different
Standardized inspection, transparent pricing
  • Every item inspected on video
    Before anything ships from Foshan, it’s checked against your chosen tier — and you can see the video yourself.
  • Packing matched to the piece
    Fragile and high-value items get reinforced, purpose-built packing, not a generic box.
  • Instant, transparent quotes
    Enter your dimensions, inspection tier, and destination — get a real price in seconds.
  • Returns handled locally
    Our returns support means a damaged or unwanted item doesn’t have to go all the way back to China.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about the inspection process, sourcing assistance, Alibaba & AliExpress shipments, returns, and API access.

You send your furniture to our receiving facility in Foshan, China — either from your own supplier, or a purchase from a marketplace like Alibaba or AliExpress. We inspect it against the tier you choose, pack it, and photograph and video the whole process so you can review it in your account before it ships. From there, we ship it out and hand off to white glove delivery for the final leg to your customer's door.

That's fine — our sourcing team can help you find and vet a factory in China before your item ever reaches our inspection process. Tell us what you're looking for through our sourcing assistance page and we'll take it from there.

We offer three tiers. Basic covers an exterior check, quantity count, and photo documentation — a good fit for low-risk, standard-production furniture. Standard adds hardware and joint testing plus video documentation, and is the right choice for most furniture. Premium adds pre-assembly, surface and material checks (lacquer, leather, marble), and moisture testing for high-value or fragile pieces.

Yes. Sellers on those platforms usually don't offer standardized inspection or white glove delivery — if you'd rather not rely on whatever shipping the seller arranges, have it sent to our Foshan facility instead. We inspect, pack, and deliver it the same way we would for anything else that comes through our warehouse.

We offer returns support handled through our own warehouse network rather than requiring the item to be shipped all the way back to China. Reach out to our team for the specifics of your situation.

Yes — for sellers who want to integrate quote requests, order submission, and tracking directly into their own store or platform, we offer a REST API along with Shopify and WooCommerce plugins. Details are on our platform and API page.
