What do you mean by White Glove Delivery?

A white glove service refers to one of many services for shipments that require special attention during shipping. These shipments are usually very heavy or very fragile and need to be handled with utmost care to prevent damage. We utilize these types of carriers as they offer several options on moving cargo such as: commercial or cargo aircraft, ground, ocean, dedicated vehicles & rail. Due to the diverse range of options for moving cargo through these carriers, our cargo typically moves with far less "touches" than a traditional LTL (less than truckload) model. Contrarily, most other kayak retailers utilize traditional LTL shipping which is a way for to ship cargo without waiting for a full truckload of freight that needs to be sent or paying for a small amount of freight on a big, empty truck. Although this approach is typically cheaper, there are often more "touches" resulting in a higher damage ratio.
