That's an excellent question! The lead time for an order of about twenty urban benches typically ranges from 4 to 8 weeks from order confirmation to delivery, but several key factors can influence this timeline.
For standard designs using common materials like powder-coated steel with pre-treated hardwood slats, you can often expect production and delivery within that 4-6 week window. If you require custom designs, special powder coat colors, unique materials, or intricate branding, the process may extend to 8 weeks or slightly more. The timeline breaks down into three phases: manufacturing, shipping, and installation.
Manufacturing usually takes 2-4 weeks. Shipping depends on your location relative to the factory and the freight method. Domestic ground shipping within the same region may add 3-7 days, while cross-country or international shipping will take longer. We always recommend factoring in an additional few days for potential logistical delays and the on-site installation or placement of the benches.
To get the most accurate and firm timeline for your specific project, the best step is to request a formal quote. Providing details like your chosen bench model, material specifications, finish color, and delivery zip code allows us to give you a precise schedule. We understand project deadlines are crucial and work diligently to provide reliable lead times for our bulk commercial and municipal clients.
