Door To Door Delivery!, by Mister Frame Man on Jan 25, 2008 14:25:39 GMT 1, Hi,
Thanks to everyone that has shown interest in my framing sale!
I am trying to work out logistics & costings etc for collections and deliveries and would appreciate a little feeback from everyone. Basically, how much is door to door delivery worth to you?
I am in no way looking to make any money on delivery or collection of your artwork, but I do need to cover my costs.
The service would be fully insured from the moment it leaves your door to the moment it returns fully framed and would be arranged at your convenience.
So, how much would you see as a fair price?

Tricky one !

Having seen the work and feedback that you have recieved on here from members and galleries then I would be over the moon to use you for framing.
If you are looking to offer door to door service not only do I think that would be fantastic for the likes of myself as potenial customers, but I also think you'd find yourself very busy (the previous thread is proof of that).
Just as a benchmark yesterday I sent a canvas which was 160 x 110 x 6cm weighing 15kg from Bristol to London. It was collected yesterday and will be delivered today for ยฃ30 insured. Which I thought was v cheap!
I'm sure they will use a multi drop system in London.
Different scenario I know but hope this is a help

I reckon you are on to a winner..this could make portfolios semi redundant!!

Door To Door Delivery!, by gtf on Jan 31, 2008 2:06:36 GMT 1, Similar thoughts to to njr911 it depends on how much it costs you to provide the service to me.
I would expect to pay quite a bit for door-door delivery if I had only one print to be framed cheaply and I was the only person north of the border wanting it. i.e to cover your costs. On the other hand if I had quite a few prints and looking for some good quality frames/glass and there were lots of us up here wanting it I would be looking to pay less.
I wouldn't grumble paying ยฃ40 for the service.
