Why use a receiving service?

Located in the heart of Palm Springs—and now proudly serving San Diego—Ocotillo Services understands the logistical challenges faced by designers, builders, and homeowners when it comes to deliveries. Many major vendors will only ship to commercial warehouses with loading docks and trained personnel ready to receive shipments.

Instead of managing the costs, coordination, and risks of doing it yourself—staff, trucks, insurance, movers, fuel, and space—our clients trust Ocotillo Services to handle it all with precision and care. We manage the entire process so you can focus on what you do best: creating exceptional designs.

Professional Receiving:

Your shipments travel a long way—let us make sure they arrive safely.

At Ocotillo Services, every item we receive is inspected visually and, when needed, physically before it’s accepted from the carrier. We verify order details against client specifications, ensuring nothing is missing or incorrect.

If any issues arise, we document them with photos and immediately notify you. Our team can assist in filing claims, arranging repairs, or coordinating returns. We can even correct minor imperfections in-house.

 

Our goal is simple: deliver peace of mind and keep your projects running smoothly.

Flexible, Climate-Controlled Storage:

Our storage solutions are designed to scale with your business.

You pay only for the space you actually use, and our advanced inventory system makes managing multiple projects effortless.

Our Palm Springs warehouse is climate-controlled, maintaining comfortable temperatures even during extreme desert heat—protecting your valuable furnishings and materials year-round.

In a desert region with heat often exceeding 120° F in the summer, our climate-controlled storage warehouse is a must. The warehouse is typically kept up to 20º-30º F cooler during the summer season. We also have a fully temperature-controlled area for those more sensitive pieces.
