What is a White Glove Service?
The Cambridge dictionary defines a white glove service as one ‘providing a very high level of service or involving a lot of care about small details’.
For many the term White Glove Service conjures up images of well dressed, well-spoken butlers and maître d’s. Why? Because these roles are synonymous with luxury experiences that provide or involve meticulous care, attention, or service. Taking this level of high service and applying it to the transportation industry results in a premium delivery service, with special attention to details, especially with fragile or very expensive items.
Why Choose a White Glove Transportation Service?
While many people today are concerned with speed, convenience and fulfilment, a White Glove Service offers you more than this; a complete transportation experience.
White Glove transportation services are used to deliver specialty goods including valuable, fragile and climate-sensitive items. From antiquities, aviation parts, laboratory & scientific equipment and pharmaceutical medicines right through to valuables such as fine art, paintings, sculptures, statues antiques and musical instruments. Pulleyn has a trusted, experienced and professional team who are experts at end-to-end handling of all kinds of movable goods.
Pulleyn’s team of drivers are fully trained by our management team in safe handling, GDP, internal standard operating procedures and more. They have many years’ experience with international driving laws. Our equipment is state-of-the-art, vehicles are spotless, checks are vigilant, our drivers are friendly and reception staff are welcoming.
So, whilst many logistics and delivery companies claim to handle shipments with the utmost care, it is the White Glove attitude that sets this special delivery service apart from the rest.
