THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN FURNITURE DELIVERY
Warehouse on Wheels is the industry standard for furniture home delivery in markets over 100 miles from a warehouse or distribution center. With this container-style system, two 26' pre-loaded straight truck bodies are line-hauled to a distant market on a semi-trailer and then transferred to straight trucks for final mile delivery. Whether you lease or own your trucks, or utilize a 3PL, Warehouse on Wheels gives you superior control over the customer delivery experience.
Thirty percent of the Top 100 furniture retailers—according to Furniture Today— including Lacks Valley Stores, Weekends Only and Matter Brothers Furniture are currently utilizing our system and enjoying the following benefits:
“Partnering with Demountable Concepts is by far the best logistical move Matter Brothers has made to date... We couldn't be more pleased with this transition and plan to utilize Demountable containers and trucks in all of our current and future long-distance deliveries.”
– Matter Brothers' Operations Manager
NEW CUSTOMER: TURNER FURNITURE HOLDINGS

As a result of steady growth over the years they are one of the Top 100 Furniture Stores in America, according to Furniture Today.
