How do you stay competitive if you’re based in Arizona?

Location does not impact your pricing. We utilize mill-direct shipping, meaning products are shipped directly from the manufacturer to your facility. This reduces handling costs and ensures competitive pricing regardless of your location. We can provide competitive pricing which is typically lower than big box stores.

…and many more. We can source from a wide network to meet your specifications.

Do you offer a room visualization tool?

Because we supply products from many manufacturers, we do not host a single visualization tool. However, once a product is selected, we will work with the manufacturer and chosen product to provide a visual representation of your project.

Are shipping costs included in your GSA Contract quote (or prices)?

Because products are offered from various manufacturers around the country, most items require a freight estimate, so it varies. We will look for the most affordable option. When applicable, a sales representative will include a freight estimate during the quote process – please be sure to let us know the zip code for the delivered products.
