White Glove Delivery & Assembly Services
From a Pallet at the Curb to Fully Built — Without Lifting a Panel
Here's the part nobody mentions until checkout: your $5,000 sauna arrives strapped to a pallet at the end of your driveway. Between that pallet and your first session, there's carrying, unboxing, and a full assembly job. That's the gap our service packages close — you order, we coordinate, and your equipment is built, tested for power where applicable, and ready to use.
Three Levels of Delivery, Explained Honestly
Every order ships free to the contiguous 48 states. What happens after the truck pulls up is where the levels differ.
Curbside Delivery
What "free freight delivery" actually means, in plain terms:
- Liftgate truck lowers your palletized equipment to the ground
- Placed at the end of your driveway or curb
- You inspect and sign at delivery
- Carrying inside, unboxing, and assembly are up to you
Threshold / Inside Delivery
Offered by some carriers on some routes — call to check yours:
- Brought through your first doorway or into the garage
- No stairs beyond entry level in most cases
- You skip the driveway-to-door carry
- Still no unboxing, assembly, or debris removal
Full Service
The three packages below. Room of choice, fully built, mess gone:
- In-home placement in the room where it will live
- Unboxing and full assembly where included
- All packaging and debris removed
- Serviceability confirmed within 2 business days of your order — or your service fee refunded

How It Works
Five steps from checkout to your first session. We coordinate every hand-off, so you only ever deal with us.
Add the package to your order
Add it at checkout with your equipment — or call us any time before your equipment ships and we'll add it to your existing order.
We confirm serviceability
Within 2 business days of your order — before your equipment ships — we verify coverage for your exact address. If we can't service it, your service fee is refunded in full.
We schedule after your equipment ships
Once freight is moving, we call to set your date for after your equipment arrives — typically confirmed on that scheduling call.
The team assembles & clears out
Placement, unboxing, assembly per your package, and every scrap of packaging hauled away.
You confirm completion
You walk the finished work and confirm it's done right. For saunas, your electrician then connects the dedicated circuit.
Building a Recovery Room? We Quote It as One Project
Gyms, med spas, PT clinics, hotels, and teams: multi-product deliveries into commercial buildings involve loading docks, elevators, COIs, and sequencing — so we quote them individually instead of forcing them into flat packages.
- One coordinated delivery and assembly plan across all equipment
- COI handling for buildings that require it
- Dock, elevator, and after-hours access planning
- Custom quote back to you, typically within 2 business days

Delivery & Assembly Questions, Answered
What's included in white glove sauna delivery and assembly?
The sauna packages combine inside delivery with full assembly: a specialized white glove delivery carrier brings your sauna to the room where it will live, unboxes it, assembles the full kit to the manufacturer's instructions, and removes all packaging and debris before leaving. Electrical work isn't included — saunas that need a dedicated circuit are connected by your own licensed electrician after assembly. Outdoor and barrel saunas are quoted individually; call (888) 500-5675.
Do you assemble the equipment, or just deliver it?
Both, depending on the package. Free curbside delivery is delivery only — your equipment arrives on a pallet at the end of your driveway. Our service packages go further: Premium In-Home Setup covers in-home placement, unboxing, positioning, and chiller hose hookup for cold plunges, float pods, and massage chairs, while the White Glove + Full Assembly packages add complete kit assembly for indoor saunas. Every package ends with a full cleanup — the team hauls the boxes, pallet, and wrap away.
Who actually performs the work?
We're honest about this: the work isn't done by Recovery Room Direct employees. Premium In-Home Setup is performed by independent assembly professionals covered by commercial insurance or their platform's service-guarantee program, matched through our service partners, and the sauna packages are fulfilled by specialized white glove delivery carriers we contract on your route. Vetting and background checks are handled by those partner platforms and carriers. We coordinate the whole thing — one point of contact, one phone number.
Does the service include electrical work for my sauna?
No. Assembly teams never wire, hardwire, or connect anything to your home's electrical system. Most traditional and larger infrared saunas require a dedicated 240V circuit — the exact specification is listed on your sauna's product page — and that electrical installation must be completed by a licensed electrician you hire directly. Many customers have the circuit ready before assembly day, so the electrician just connects the sauna after the team finishes.
How does scheduling work?
After you order, we confirm serviceability for your address within 2 business days — before your equipment ships. Once your equipment ships, we call you to set the appointment — we schedule it for after your equipment arrives, typically confirmed on your scheduling call. Any access surcharges (stairs beyond one flight, long carries, remote ZIP codes) are quoted and approved on that call before anything is dispatched, never invoiced afterward. Your appointment locks in once you confirm the date and site-readiness checklist by email.
What areas do you cover?
Service packages are available across most of the contiguous 48 states, with coverage strongest in and around metro areas. Because professional and carrier networks vary by ZIP code, we confirm serviceability for your exact address within 2 business days of your order — and if we can't service your location, the service fee is refunded in full. Alaska, Hawaii, and international addresses aren't covered.
What if something gets damaged during delivery or assembly?
Every job starts with pre-service photos, which cleanly separates freight damage from assembly damage. Damage that appears in the pre-service photos is handled as a freight claim; damage that occurs during the service is covered through the assigned provider's or carrier's insurance and resolution process. Either way, you don't chase anyone alone — report it to us and we help you document and file the claim.
Can I add a service package after I've already ordered?
Yes — the service can be added any time until your equipment ships. Call (888) 500-5675 with your order number and we'll add the correct package to your existing order. The add-on window closes when your equipment ships — after that we can refer you to local professionals you hire directly. If the package you purchased doesn't match your product, we'll contact you to adjust it before scheduling.
Can I get a refund or reschedule my service?
Yes. The service fee is fully refundable any time before your appointment is booked — booked means your appointment date is locked after you confirm it by email. After booking, rescheduling or cancelling 48 hours or more before your appointment is free (a full refund if you cancel). Within 48 hours of the appointment, or if your site is not ready when the team arrives, a $75 rebooking fee applies (refund minus $75 if you cancel). If your equipment order is cancelled or returned before the service is performed, the service fee is refunded automatically on the same ladder. Once completion is confirmed, the fee is non-refundable — except that if your equipment is returned for a defect, the service fee is refunded or credited even after completion. Full details are in the Assembly & Delivery Services Terms.
Do you handle commercial and multi-room recovery projects?
Yes. Gyms, med spas, physical therapy clinics, hotels, and teams building full recovery rooms are quoted individually — commercial projects start at $999, and full recovery-room builds typically run $2,500 or more depending on equipment count, building access, and COI requirements. Fill out the quote form on this page or call (888) 500-5675 and we'll come back with a custom quote, typically within 2 business days.

Assembly & Delivery Services Terms — Version 1.1, Effective July 28, 2026
The binding terms for all assembly & delivery service purchases
These terms apply to optional assembly and delivery services purchased from Recovery Room Direct. They do not affect your rights regarding the equipment itself, which is covered by our standard shipping, return, and warranty policies.
1. Scope of Services
These terms govern the optional assembly and delivery service packages sold by Recovery Room Direct ("we," "us") as separate line items alongside eligible equipment. The scope of every package we sell is as follows:
“This service covers unboxing, in-home placement, and assembly of freestanding equipment only, plus packaging removal. It includes equipment-to-equipment connections that require no tools on your home, such as connecting chiller hoses to a cold plunge's quick-connect fittings. Where your equipment operates on an existing standard household outlet, the team will plug it in and confirm it powers on; equipment requiring a dedicated circuit or hardwired power is commissioned by your licensed electrician after assembly. Our assembly teams do not anchor, mount, bolt, wire, plumb, cut, drill, or otherwise attach anything to your home or its electrical, plumbing, or gas systems. Any electrical or plumbing connection your equipment requires (including dedicated circuits and hardwired hookups) must be completed by a licensed electrician or plumber that you hire directly. Recovery Room Direct is a retailer; we are not a licensed home improvement contractor and do not perform, offer, or arrange construction, installation, or home improvement services.”
Service packages and what each includes:
- Premium In-Home Setup (Cold Plunges, Float Pods & Massage Chairs). A two-person team unboxes your equipment, positions it in the room of your choice, connects chiller hoses via the tub's quick-connect fittings where applicable, and removes all packaging and debris.
- White Glove + Full Assembly (Indoor Saunas up to 4-Person). Inside delivery to the room of your choice, full assembly of the sauna kit per the manufacturer's instructions, and removal of all packaging and debris. Electrical work is excluded and is completed by your own licensed electrician.
- White Glove + Full Assembly — Large (5+ Person Indoor Saunas). The same service as above, performed by a larger crew over a longer appointment window. Outdoor and barrel saunas are not currently eligible for these packages; contact us for options.
If the package you purchased does not match your product, we will contact you to adjust it before scheduling.
2. Independent Service Providers
Assembly and delivery services are performed by independent service providers — third-party professionals, service platforms, and final-mile carriers — who are not our employees or agents. We do not supervise, direct, or control the manner or means of their work. Our role is limited to arranging the booking and collecting payment for the service on your behalf.
We remain fully responsible to you for the product you purchased and for its manufacturer warranty, exactly as described in our standard policies. The servicing provider is responsible for the services it performs at your home.
3. Insurance & Damage Claims
Claims for damage arising from the performance of the services are handled through the servicing provider's commercial insurance or, where the provider is matched through a service platform, that platform's guarantee program. Platform guarantee programs have their own conditions, coverage limits, and claim windows, which are set by the platform and may change; we encourage you to review them before your appointment, and we will help you route and file your claim with the correct party.
To protect your claim, report any damage to us promptly — within 72 hours of service completion, with photos, is safest. Later reports may fall outside a provider's or platform's claim window.
Providers photograph the packaging and components before beginning work. Damage that is documented in these pre-service photos is handled as a freight or carrier claim under our standard shipping policy. Damage that is not present in the pre-service photos and is identified at completion is handled as a claim against the servicing provider as described above.
4. Site Readiness & Access
You are responsible for having the site ready on the day of your appointment:
- Provide accurate access information when booking (floors, stairs, elevator availability, door widths, parking, and any building requirements).
- Ensure a clear path from the delivery point to the room where the equipment will be placed.
- Have an adult (18+) present for the entire appointment.
- Where your equipment requires a dedicated electrical circuit, have that circuit installed by your own licensed electrician before the appointment. The assembly team will not perform electrical work of any kind.
If site conditions not disclosed at the time of purchase increase the work required — for example stairs beyond one flight, long carries, or remote locations — any surcharge is quoted to you and requires your approval before the team is dispatched. We never bill surcharges after the fact.
If the site is not ready when the team arrives (for example, no clear path, no adult present, or a required dedicated circuit not yet in place), the appointment is rescheduled and a $75 rebooking fee applies.
5. Scheduling, Cancellation & Refunds
Your service fee follows this refund ladder:
- Fully refundable until booked. "Booked" means your appointment date has been locked in after you confirm the date by email.
- Reschedule or cancel 48 hours or more before your appointment: no charge.
- Reschedule or cancel within 48 hours of your appointment: a $75 rebooking fee applies (refund less the $75 fee if you cancel).
- Non-refundable once completion is confirmed (see Section 6).
If we cannot confirm service coverage for your address within 2 business days of your order, the service fee is refunded in full.
If your equipment order is cancelled or returned for any reason before the service has been performed, the service fee is automatically refunded according to its position on the ladder above.
Manufacturing-defect exception. If your equipment is returned because of a verified manufacturing defect, your service fee is refunded in full or, at your option, credited toward reassembly of the replacement unit — even after the service has been completed.
Provider no-show. If a provider misses a confirmed appointment, we will rebook you immediately at no cost or, at your option after one missed appointment, refund the service fee in full. We are not liable for consequential costs associated with a missed or rescheduled appointment, such as time taken off work, other trades you scheduled, or storage costs.
6. Completion & Acceptance
At the end of the appointment, you (or your designated representative) inspect the work and confirm completion. Your confirmation covers assembly workmanship only. It does not cover the electrical function of equipment that is awaiting hookup by your electrician, which can only be evaluated after your electrician completes the connection.
If we do not hear from you within 72 hours of our completion notice, the service is deemed accepted. Acceptance — whether confirmed or deemed — does not waive your right to file a damage claim with the servicing provider within its applicable claim window (see Section 3).
7. Electrical & Plumbing
Assembly teams never perform electrical or plumbing work. Any electrical or plumbing connection your equipment requires — including dedicated circuits, hardwired hookups, and water or drain lines — must be completed by a licensed electrician or plumber that you hire directly. Equipment requiring dedicated or hardwired power is commissioned by your electrician after assembly is complete.
8. Commercial Premises
Services purchased for commercial premises — gyms, studios, clinics, spas, hotels, offices, and other non-residential locations — are governed by a separate commercial services agreement arranged through our commercial team. These consumer terms do not apply to commercial engagements. Contact us at (888) 500-5675 to arrange commercial service.
9. Agreement & Acceptance of These Terms
Purchasing an assembly or delivery service constitutes your acceptance of these terms. You accept these terms by checking the service option when adding it to your cart (your acceptance is recorded with your order), or by email confirmation when we add the service to your order by phone. The version and effective date of the terms you accepted are shown on this page and referenced in your order confirmation.
These terms are Version 1.1, effective July 28, 2026. We may update them for future purchases; the version in effect when you purchased your service is the version that applies to it.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability in connection with the services is limited to the amount you paid for the service. Nothing in these terms limits liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct. Some states do not allow certain limitations or releases of liability, so portions of this section may not apply to you.
