Rental Pickup or On-site Service: What’s the Difference?

Once you have found a table design you like, consider how you would like to use it. Customer pickup rentals and on-site event services are two different arrangements.

At a glance

Rental table sets are customer pickup and drop-off only. On-site services in New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Connecticut carry a separate travel fee.

Consider the service as well as the design

When planning a Korean first birthday celebration, or doljanchi, the design is only part of the decision. Your event date, venue and transportation plans also matter. Maison Arco rental table sets are customer pickup and drop-off only, while on-site services carry a separate travel fee.

If you are still deciding, start with your preferred design and event details. An inquiry gives us the information needed to discuss the available service options and arrangements.

Rentals: customer pickup and drop-off only

Delivery is not available for rental table sets. Customers must collect and return the rented items themselves. The sets include high-value, fragile pieces, so careful handling and transportation are important.

Before making transportation plans, confirm the pickup and return locations, timing, rental contents and handling instructions. Rather than estimating vehicle or packing requirements from a photograph, ask about the actual items included in your rental.

  • Check that you can arrange both pickup and return.
  • Confirm the collection and return locations and timing.
  • Ask about handling and transportation for your selected items.

On-site services: share your date and location

On-site services are available in New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Connecticut. A separate travel fee applies. Share your event date and location so we can confirm availability and the applicable fee.

Being within an on-site service area does not make rental delivery available. Send your preferred design and venue details, then confirm which services and arrangements can be provided at that location.

Prepare a few details before you inquire

Have your event date and time, venue and location, preferred first-birthday or 100-day table design, and any hanbok selections ready. Include a note about the service arrangement you are considering.

Visits to our Fort Lee studio are by appointment only, and dolsang displays are not available for in-person viewing. Please use the actual design photographs on our website when browsing. An inquiry does not confirm a booking; we first discuss the date and arrangements before explaining the next steps.
