That's an excellent question, and one we hear often from businesses, municipalities, and property managers. The delivery charges for a bulk order of outdoor benches aren't a one-size-fits-all figure. They depend on several key factors.
Primarily, the final cost is determined by the ship-to location (zip code is crucial), the total weight and dimensions of the entire shipment (often calculated per pallet or truckload), and the delivery method you choose (curbside, lift-gate service, or inside placement). The bench material—heavy cast iron versus lighter aluminum or poly lumber—also significantly impacts the freight weight.
For an accurate quote, the best approach is to configure your desired bench models and quantities, then proceed to checkout or contact the supplier's sales team directly. Most reputable commercial furniture suppliers will provide a freight quote before you finalize the purchase. They calculate this using your address and the packed dimensions/weight of your order via their freight carriers.
Pro Tip: To potentially reduce costs, ask if they offer consolidated shipping on mixed SKUs or inquire about delivery to a commercial loading dock, which is typically less expensive than residential lift-gate service. Always clarify what the quoted delivery charge includes to avoid unexpected fees.
In short, while we can't state a universal price here, transparent suppliers will work with you to provide a clear, upfront delivery estimate for your specific bulk bench order before any commitment is made.
