Designer Sofa & Sectional Shipping in Austin, Texas

Your RH, Restoration Hardware, Natuzzi, or custom sectional deserves more than bubble wrap and a truck. We ship and crate designer sofas and sectionals across Austin and nationwide — with white-glove handling and a scratch-free guarantee.

Why Designer Sofas Need Specialist Shipping

A standard moving company treats a $12,000 sectional the same way they treat a $400 IKEA sofa. At Austin Crate & Freight, we do not. Designer sofas and sectionals present unique challenges: exposed fabric, delicate legs, modular connectors, down fills, and high-gloss or leather finishes that scratch, scuff, or crease under ordinary wrap-and-go handling.

Our process starts with the right wrap materials for the finish — breathable blankets for leather, stretch film for fabric — and ends with custom wood crating when the piece is going long-distance or through an LTL freight network where multiple handlers will touch it.

Fabric & Upholstery Protection

Breathable furniture blankets and acid-free wrapping prevent crushing, snagging, and compression marks on delicate upholstery.

Leather & Vinyl Care

We use specific wrap techniques and padding profiles that prevent creasing, cracking, or surface transfer on premium leather.

Modular & Sectional Disassembly

Sectional connectors are carefully documented, removed, and bagged so your sofa reassembles perfectly at delivery.

Custom Crating for Long-Haul

Cross-country shipments get a bespoke wood crate built in our Austin shop — exact dimensions, interior blocking, screw lid.

Leg & Hardware Protection

Exposed wooden or metal legs are individually wrapped and padded to prevent impact damage during transit.

White-Glove Placement

We bring the piece inside, position it where you want it, reassemble all sections, and remove all packing materials.

Can you ship a European brand sectional (Roche Bobois, B&B Italia)?

Yes. We ship international designer sectionals regularly.

We photograph every connection point and bag all hardware for correct reassembly at the destination.
