The Wood & Fabric Diaries

The Hidden Costs of National Chains Many customers don’t realize how expensive “free shipping” from national retailers really is. It’s built into inflated prices, hidden in long wait times, and often comes with the risk of damaged goods. Add in 6–8 weeks of waiting, and what seems like a deal becomes a headache. The Local Advantage in the DMV Lower Delivery Costs When you buy from a DMV-based store like Lacasita Furniture, you’re not paying for long-distance freight. We pass those savings on to you. 2. Faster Turnaround Unlike nationwide stores, our furniture doesn’t sit in warehouses across the country. We deliver in days, not months, so you can enjoy your new set almost immediately. 3. Safer, More Reliable Delivery National deliveries often involve multiple hand-offs between warehouses and trucks, increasing the risk of scratches or damage. Our local team personally ensures safe, direct delivery from our warehouse to your home. 4. Supporting the Local Economy Shopping local isn’t just about furniture. Every purchase helps support jobs, businesses, and growth in the DMV community.

For Maryland families, the dining room is the soul of the home. It’s where kids finish homework, parents share stories from work, and families celebrate holidays and birthdays.
