Carry-Up Service

Carry-up Service is required for delivery to any location above ground floor without direct, unobstructed lift access. This includes carrying furniture up any flight of stairs within apartments or landed property.

Common scenarios include:

• Stairs within landed properties and HDB maisonette
• Walk-up apartments with no direct lift access
• Lift doorways that are too narrow for the furniture items to fit through

Carry-up service is charged at $10 per item, per every non-lift accessible level. Please note that this service is limited to carrying up a maximum of 3 storeys / flights of stairs. E.g. Delivery of two items (table and bench) to the fourth storey of a shophouse will be calculated as $10 x 2 items x 3 non-lift accessible storeys = $60.

Note: Carry-up service is required only for furniture items and does not need to be added on for accessory items.

Please indicate “carry-up service” in the Special Instructions box on the Cart page and specify the no. of items & no. of storeys with no lift access. E.g. Carry-up service - 2 items, 2 storeys. A separate payment link will be email to you after we’ve received your order.

If you require carry-up service but have not arranged for it at any of the steps above, please send a request to our enquiries@kernelfurniture.com. Kindly ensure we are notified and have acknowledged your request at least 3 full working weekdays before your delivery date (not inclusive of the day itself).

We agree to deliver goods to you on the understanding that reasonable access is available. It is your responsibility to check measurements to ensure your items will fit through the doorways or passageways leading to your delivery location.

Should there be any obstructions to direct lift access experienced during delivery, the Delivery Team will assess whether it is possible to perform carry-up service on the spot (and bill the charges later) or to reschedule delivery. This is dependent on the number of items to be delivered, manpower, hazard assessment as well as other operational considerations. If the Delivery Team determines that delivery has to be rescheduled, there will be a restocking fee of $60.
