How much does Costco delivery cost in Dallas-Fort Worth?

Costco delivery in DFW typically ranges from $79 to $299 depending on item size, weight, and your location. Sofas and furniture generally cost $129–$199; large appliances may run $199–$299. The fee is quoted at checkout before you buy.

How long does Costco big-item delivery take in the DFW area?

Costco's standard delivery window is 7–14 days, sometimes longer during peak seasons like late spring and holidays. If you need same-day or next-day delivery, you'll need to use a third-party courier or Cratezy's pickup truck service instead.

Can Cratezy pick up a Costco item the same day?

Yes. Cratezy dispatches pickup trucks for same-day single-item delivery across DFW. Call or request a quote in the morning, and we can typically pick up your item and deliver it by afternoon. Cost is typically $79–$249 depending on item size and distance.

Is Cratezy cheaper than Costco delivery for big items?

Pricing is comparable for most items ($79–$249 range), but Cratezy wins on speed—same day versus 7–14 days. Costco may be cheaper for appliances if you're willing to wait and want included assembly or haul-away. Get a Cratezy quote to compare directly.

Do Cratezy pickup crews help unload furniture?

Yes. Cratezy sends a two-person crew that will load your item at the pickup location and unload it at your home. They do not assemble furniture or move items within your house—that's your part—but they handle the heavy lifting in and out.

Costco Big Item Delivery DFW: How It Works

Costco sells big stuff — couches, mattresses, 75-inch TVs, patio furniture sets — but getting it home in Dallas-Fort Worth isn't always straightforward. You can use Costco's own delivery service, hire a third-party courier, or call Cratezy for a same-day pickup truck with loading help. Here's how each option works and what you'll actually pay.

Costco's In-House Delivery Service

Costco operates its own delivery fleet for large items in most of the DFW metroplex, including Dallas proper, Arlington, Fort Worth, Plano, Frisco, Irving, and Garland. When you buy a bulky item — say, a sectional sofa or a kitchen appliance — Costco offers white-glove delivery (assembly and old-item haul-away included on some SKUs) for a flat fee or a percentage markup on the item price.

What to expect:

Lead time of 7–14 days, sometimes longer during peak season (late spring, holiday shopping).
Delivery fee typically ranges from $79 to $299, depending on item weight, destination zone, and assembly complexity. A sofa in north Dallas might run $129; a washer/dryer in Frisco could be $199.
Two-person crew for placement and basic setup.
Haul-away of your old item available for an additional $35–$75.
You must be home during a 4–6 hour window; no specific time slot.

The upside: Costco handles everything, and you know the delivery crew is trained on Costco's standards. The downside: you're locked into their schedule, and if you need it today or tomorrow, you're out of luck.

Third-Party Courier Services

Several regional and national courier companies operate in DFW and advertise on Costco's website as approved partners. TaskRabbit, 1-800-GOT-JUNK, and local moving/delivery startups all compete for Costco deliveries.

Typical pricing:

$99–$349 depending on item size and distance. A TV delivered 5 miles away might be $99; a furniture set across Arlington to Irving, $249.
Many charge by the hour (usually 1–2 hour minimums at $60–$85/hour) plus a mileage fee.
Lead times vary: same-day is possible from some services, but you'll pay a premium (often 1.5× the standard rate).
Assembly and haul-away typically cost extra.

These services are fastest when you need urgency, but you're also juggling reviews, multiple quote requests, and less brand consistency than Costco's own fleet.

Cratezy Pickup Truck Option: When It Makes Sense

Cratezy dispatches a pickup truck for single-item delivery in DFW in the same day you call. A crew of two can load your Costco purchase, drive it to your address, and help unload. This works especially well if you've already bought the item (so you know its exact dimensions), you're nearby (within DFW proper), and you'd rather pay a flat rate upfront than negotiate with a third party.

Cost: Typically $79–$249 depending on the item's size and your distance from Costco. A 65-inch TV from the Plano Costco to your home 3 miles away might run $89; a full patio set from Arlington Costco to Garland could be $179.

Why choose Cratezy:

Same-day availability — call in the morning, get picked up in the afternoon.
Two-person crew handles loading and unloading; you're not stuck carrying alone.
Upfront pricing; no surprise hourly charges or fuel surcharges.
Straightforward process: tell us the item, your Costco location, and your destination. Done.

Not a fit if: you need assembly, have a massive sectional that requires disassembly and reassembly, or are moving outside the DFW service area.

Head-to-Head Comparison

Real-World Scenario: The 65-Inch TV Buy

You find a 65-inch Samsung on sale at Costco in Frisco, marked down to $349. You live in Richardson, about 8 miles away. Your options:

Costco delivery: $129 fee. You wait 10 days, delivery crew brings it to your door, but you handle unboxing and mounting.
TaskRabbit: You get a quote of $159 (2-hour minimum at $75/hr, plus small mileage). Could be same-day, but you're negotiating with an independent tasker.
Cratezy: $99 flat rate, same-day pickup at 2 p.m., crew unloads into your living room. You handle the stand/mount setup yourself.

If you're desperate for today, Cratezy and TaskRabbit compete closely. If you can wait and want the absolute cheapest, Costco wins. If you want zero hassle with a known price, Cratezy's middle ground is appealing.

Tips for DFW Costco Shoppers

Know your Costco location. If you're near the I-30 corridor between Dallas and Arlington, you're in a dense delivery zone (faster Costco turnarounds). Remote spots like far Plano or south Fort Worth may have longer Costco wait times.

Ask about haul-away at the register. Many customers forget to request old-item removal until the last minute. Costco's haul-away is often cheaper than having a courier do a second trip.

Check the item's weight and dimensions before you buy. Some Costco furniture is bulky but light; some appliances are compact but heavy. Knowing this upfront helps you pick the right delivery method. A 400-pound fridge might warrant Costco's white-glove treatment; a 50-pound patio chair is Cratezy-friendly.

Bundle small items with the big one. If you're already renting a Cratezy truck for a sofa, ask the crew if they can swing by Best Buy or another nearby store to grab that lamp or side table you also need moved. Many small pickups can happen on the same trip for minimal extra cost.

Don't assume Costco is always cheaper. A $299 Costco delivery fee plus a 10-day wait might not beat a $149 same-day Cratezy pickup if you need the item this weekend for guests.

When to Call Cratezy Instead

If your item is already at home and you just need it moved to another room or across town, Cratezy shines. If you're buying used furniture on Facebook Marketplace and need pickup from an estate sale in Garland, we're your move. If a Costco delivery fell through or is delayed, and you need the item urgently, a same-day Cratezy truck is faster than rescheduling with a third-party courier. DFW is our turf; we know the neighborhoods from Frisco to Fort Worth, and we don't over-promise.

The bottom line: Costco's own delivery is reliable and often the cheapest for big appliances and furniture if you're not in a rush. For speed, flexibility, and a known upfront price, Cratezy beats the alternatives most of the time. Get a quote over the phone — it takes two minutes, and we'll tell you exactly what the pickup will cost before you commit.
