Deliveries
On-time delivery
We appreciate how valuable your time is and that is why we are committed to meeting, or even exceeding, expectations by providing quality materials, job site services, and free local delivery*.
Arnold Lumber recognizes that lumber and building materials must be at the jobsite when they are requested for jobs to run smoothly and contractors to plan efficiently.
All orders are prepared proficiently and shipped via a convenient Delivery Schedule.

*Free Local Delivery is within an approximate 60-mile range from one of our four Rhode Island locations. If your location is outside of our Local Delivery area, we will work with you to transport your products within an agreeable timeframe. Any freight charged by outside carriers will be disclosed and invoiced to the customer.
If you have a requirement for a Specialty Truck (Boom, Moffett, Box) please request this service at the time your order is placed. Additional lead times may be necessary to ensure that we can provide this service to you. Our dispatchers will coordinate all other deliveries on the equipment that best complements your order.
