One common question we get here at RTA is, “How is my outdoor kitchen actually shipped?” It’s a great question. People often worry about potential damage, delivery logistics, or things just turning into a big old headache. Well, we have steps to prevent that from happening. And in this video, I’ll walk you through exactly how the RTA shipping process works. Hi, I’m Phil with RTA Outdoor Living. If you’re considering an RTA outdoor kitchen, you’re probably wondering, “How does your kitchen arrive safely from our manufacturing facility

in Indiana to your backyard?” Well, let’s break it down for you. RTE kitchens are shipped as a complete ready to assemble system. Each concrete panel and the necessary components are professionally packaged and palletized to ensure safe transit. There aren’t going to be any loose parts. Everything is going to be well organized, labeled, and designed to arrive safely at your location. Once production on your island has been completed, and the delivery details have

been ironed out with your project manager, your kitchen will be shipped via LTL curbside delivery. This means your kitchen will arrive on the pallets that we’ve been created in and will be delivered typically to the curbside area. However, if you have a relatively accessible driveway that’s flat and smooth and paved, there’s a good chance a driver can get them on there for you. Most homeowners don’t need any specialized equipment such as a forklift or anything along those lines. The delivery process will be hashed out ahead of time to ensure it goes seamless

and smooth, and we don’t make this a stretchable situation. From a homeowner’s perspective, the main thing you need to worry about is a clean delivery area. You don’t need a crane. You don’t need a construction crew on delivery day, and you don’t need to rush into the assembly process. Because the system is modular, you can stage components and install them at your own time frame, at your own convenience, whether that’s DIY or with a local contractor. This shipping approach is what allows RTA to deliver a professionalgrade outdoor kitchen

without the long delays and unpredictability of traditional custom builds.
