White Glove Delivery Service Cape Town
JLog provides a premium white glove delivery service in Cape Town and nationally across South Africa. We handle fragile, high-value, and oversized items that standard couriers cannot safely transport — including fine art, designer furniture, ceramics, glass sculptures, and luxury goods.
As the official logistics carrier for the Investec Cape Town Art Fair, JLog is trusted by leading galleries, collectors, interior designers, and luxury brands to deliver items safely, on time, and with the care they deserve.
What Is White Glove Delivery?
White glove delivery goes beyond standard courier services. It means your items are collected, handled, transported, and placed exactly where you need them — with specialist packing, careful handling at every stage, and real-time tracking throughout. JLog’s white glove service includes inside delivery, unpacking, placement, and debris removal on request.
Who Uses Our White Glove Service?
Our white glove delivery clients include leading Cape Town galleries, leading Cape Town galleries, designer furniture makers, private collectors, interior designers, auction houses, and luxury e-commerce brands. Whether it is a R50,000 painting or a handcrafted dining table, JLog treats every item as irreplaceable.
What We Handle
JLog’s white glove service covers fine art (paintings, sculptures, prints, photography), designer and antique furniture, ceramics and glassware, musical instruments, high-value electronics, luxury goods, and any item that requires specialist care during transit. We build custom foam-lined plywood crates at our Woodstock workshop for items that need extra protection; plywood is exempt from ISPM-15.
Our White Glove Process
Step 1: Assessment. We inspect your item (on-site or via photos) and recommend the right packing and transport method. No guesswork — every job gets a tailored plan.
Step 2: Custom Packing. Our team uses acid-free tissue, foam, corner protectors and foam-lined crates. For fine art, we build custom plywood crates in our own Woodstock crating workshop.
Step 3: Collection. White glove collection from your home, gallery, studio, warehouse, or art fair booth. Every trip has a driver and a helper — no rushed loading, no stacking.
Step 4: Transport. Our own vehicles, with moving blankets and straps to secure every item. Real-time GPS tracking shared with you, so you always know where your item is.
Step 5: Delivery & Placement. Inside delivery to the room of your choice. Unpacking, placement, and removal of all packing materials. We leave your space clean and your item exactly where it belongs.
Coverage Area
JLog’s white glove delivery service covers all of Cape Town and the Western Cape, with national coverage to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Port Elizabeth, Bloemfontein, and all major South African cities. For international white glove shipments, we partner with FedEx and DHL to deliver to over 30 countries worldwide.
Transit Insurance
Goods-in-transit insurance is in place; details on request. For high-value pieces we recommend your own fine-art (or all-risk) policy; we declare the value on the export paperwork.
Pricing
White glove delivery pricing depends on the size, weight, fragility, and destination of your item. As a guide: dedicated Cape Town trips start from R950 per trip, per vehicle (VAT incl.), custom plywood crates from R1,500 depending on size, and international fine art shipments from R2,500 for a medium painting to Europe.
