How to Plan Cabinet Deliveries During Winter Construction

January 22, 2025

Construction doesn’t stop just because the temperature drops—but winter conditions do bring added risk to cabinetry logistics. From snow-blocked driveways to freezing warehouse temps, cold weather can create real setbacks. But when you plan properly and work with the right partner, delivery doesn’t have to be a bottleneck.


1. Clear Access is Critical


Make sure all driveways and walkways are shoveled and treated for ice. Our drivers need safe paths not just to the home, but also through it if we're placing items indoors.


2. Protect Cabinets from the Cold


Cabinet materials are sensitive to extreme temperatures. Indoor receiving areas should be above 60°F and free from moisture or construction debris.


3. Communicate Early and Often


The sooner we know your timeline and any site limitations (like steep driveways or job site restrictions), the better we can prep the right equipment and route.


4. Work With a Cold-Weather-Proven Carrier


We outfit our trucks for winter and train our crews for cold-weather conditions, from liftgate safety to covering flooring during snow season.


Conclusion:


Don’t let snow, ice, or frost delay your cabinetry project. With the right prep and delivery team, your winter installs can be as smooth as summer ones.
