Your sauna is delivered by freight carrier to the end of your driveway. The carrier calls to schedule a delivery window. Plan to have a second person to help move the crates to their final location.

No. Every sauna ships free curbside only. The driver brings it to your curb or the end of your driveway and unloads it there; getting it the rest of the way to its final spot is on you. The driver will not carry it indoors, up steps, or unload it with a powered lift, so plan for one or two helpers, or a local mover for about $100 to $200, on delivery day.

Inspect the crate before you sign, note any damage on the delivery receipt, and contact us. We replace shipping-damaged units at no cost. See our returns page.
