How Does my Wilding Wallbed Arrive?
By Brandon
Wilding Wallbeds is confident in their ability to ship their product anywhere. The purpose of this article is to help you understand what to expect when your Wallbed arrives fresh from Wilding Wallbeds’ production facility. Because a Wallbed is large, Wilding Wallbeds ship your order in individual, more manageable boxes, which allows you to move these components into the intended room without having to demolish a wall or two in the process. Wilding Wallbeds also provides step-by-step video instructions showing the process of assembling the various Wallbeds that they offer, making the installation simple and straightforward. Due to the fact that Wilding Wallbeds services so many areas, they offer different options or services for you to choose from, depending on your individual needs.
Bronze Shipping
For a limited time, Wilding Wallbeds will pay up to $400 of your Shipping
When your Wallbed completes production, Wilding Wallbeds will contact you by email. You will be notified when your Wallbed will be shipped from their Production Facility, with tracking information for your shipment. Once your unit arrives at the local shipping depot nearest to your home, the shipping company will call you to schedule a time for delivery. The unit will arrive on a large shipping pallet, in most cases in the back of an 18-wheeler delivery truck*. The delivery company will lower the pallet to the ground on a motorized lift-gate and leave the pallet on the driveway or at the curb.
The Wallbed and shipping pallet are now in your hands. The first step in getting the unit into the house is cutting the shrink wrap around the boxes and cutting the strapping bands securing the product to the pallet with tin snips. After this, the boxes are free to be removed from the pallet, one at a time. Carefully open the boxes and move the pieces into your home. In some cases, smaller pieces of the Murphy Bed may have been packaged inside a larger piece and it will be easier to remove the smaller piece before you begin moving larger pieces. Carrying some of the pieces into your home will be a two-person job. We recommend that you remove the product from the boxes they were shipped in and carry them into the room free of boxing material which may have been soiled in the transportation process. This will make the process of receiving your murphy bed easier and help to keep your home clean.
Once you have all of the pieces in your home, it is good to go through the boxes, to locate the installation instructions and all of the pieces. Please do this prior to discarding any of the shipping debris, this way you can ensure that you have not accidentally thrown out any important pieces or instructions. The last step is to follow the Setup Instructions and videos provided.
*If your delivery location doesn’t have room for an 18-wheeler, let Wilding Wallbeds know. Wilding Wallbeds may be able to arrange for a smaller delivery type truck called a box truck for your delivery. Please note that not all shipping companies offer a box truck option, so it’s important to talk this out with Wilidng Wallbeds prior to the product leaving their Production Facility. Also note, shipping companies will not drive their 18-wheelers on gravel or dirt roads, so you may need to meet the driver at the nearest paved road to accept delivery.
Silver Shipping
For a limited time, Wilding Wallbeds will pay up to $400 of your Shipping
One of the most popular shipping options Wilding Wallbeds offers is called Silver shipping. You get extra service by comparison to the Bronze shipping explained above and the additional cost on this Silver delivery is only $100. This service consists of a delivery team of two members. If you choose this option, your wall bed will be shipped from Wilding’s Production Facility to a 3rd party shipping company that services your area. This company will call you when they receive the Wall bed unit and schedule a time for delivery to your home. It is important to note that Silver shipping service can add 2-4 weeks to the shipping time. This delivery team arrives at your home in a *large delivery truck. They will unload the wall bed, either by hand or by using a motorized lift-gate. From there they will carry the unit into the first dry area, generally the garage or carport.
The benefit to this service is that the bed is brought into a protected area, and that there is no need for you to help with getting the bed off the truck or moving the bed from the driveway to the garage.
The Wallbed and shipping pallet are now in your hands. The first step in getting the unit into the house is cutting the shrink wrap around the boxes, and cutting the metal bands securing the product to the pallet with tin snips.

In some cases, smaller pieces of the Murphy Bed may have been packaged inside a larger piece and it will be easier to remove the smaller piece before you begin moving larger pieces.
