Furniture shipping audits

Furniture is LTL-heavy, dimensional, and returns-punishing. Freight scheduling disclosure, white-glove options, and damaged-arrival policy are decisive. These audits break down each brand's LTL carrier strategy, return shipping cost to customer, threshold pricing, and international availability — the four factors that determine furniture e-commerce conversion.

Common findings across furniture brands

Issues that recur across multiple audited merchants. The same detector firing across the category usually points to an under-served industry convention rather than a single brand problem.

Frequently asked questions

What does a furniture shipping audit cover?
Our furniture shipping audits analyze each merchant's carrier selection, lost-package policy, international coverage, return shipping terms, catalog weight completeness, currency presentment, and retention-app exposure. We flag specific issues by severity and estimate dollar impact where the data supports it.
How are the issues detected?
Each audit runs 16 rule-based detectors against crawled storefront data, observed Shopify/app signals, and Apollo company enrichment. Every detected issue cites the source signal — no AI hallucination in detection, only in rewriting the fix recommendation.
Is this data live?
Audits are refreshed when we re-crawl the store. Carrier mentions, policy text, and app fingerprints update weekly. Apollo company signals refresh monthly. Each page shows the analysis version and compose timestamp.
Can a brand dispute a finding?
Yes. Merchants can contact us at support@shipxray.com with corrections or context. Suppressed issues remain in the database with a merchant_correction reason but are removed from the public render.
