Transportation and the White Glove Differential

For AW2 Logistics, White Glove service is a premium level of delivery service that includes special handling, careful transportation, and often additional services like:

1. Inside delivery and placement - drivers bring items inside buildings/homes and place them exactly where needed
2. Unpacking and debris removal
3. Installation or assembly of delivered items
4. Special handling of delicate, high-value, or oversized items
5. Temperature or climate-controlled transport
6. Real-time tracking and status updates
7. Inspection services before and after delivery

This service is commonly used for:

• Medical equipment and sensitive healthcare supplies
• High-end furniture and antiques
• Electronics and technical equipment
• Luxury items
• Trade show materials
• Art and museum pieces
• Fitness Equipment

White Glove service typically costs more than standard shipping because it requires specially trained personnel, dedicated equipment, and more time per delivery. The name "White Glove" comes from the traditional white gloves worn by handlers to protect valuable items and symbolize the extra care taken during transport and delivery.
