The Go-To Receiving Warehouse in Indianapolis
Furniture for a Carmel new build or a Meridian-Kessler bungalow ships to our Indianapolis receiving warehouse and is held until our crew carries it in.

What happens when a shipment lands.
Receive
Vendors address freight to 8460 Bearing Dr. Ste. 400, Indianapolis, IN 46268 with your name or project on the label, and each truck is booked in Monday to Friday between 9am and 3pm. Send us your list of what is coming before the first one leaves.
Inspect, Photograph, and Document
Packaging is condition-checked against your list as the truck is unloaded; a dented crate is reported before storage, and any order gets a full inspection when you ask. Every arrival's photos go into Terminal, and your login shows what has landed and what is on the road.
Store
The order waits in secured, climate-controlled space, grouped by project, while a Broad Ripple kitchen is finished or a Westfield closing date moves back a month.
Deliver and install
On the date you set, our own crew loads the full order on the northwest side, texts about 30 minutes before arrival, and covers floors, doors and stair rails on the way in. You can follow the truck on live tracking, and once each piece is placed and assembled, the crew takes the cartons and wrapping away.
See what arrived, without calling.
Every piece is listed in Terminal with its vendor, sidemark, arrival photos and status, so you, your client or the install lead can check the order from anywhere.
