The table is the piece everything else in a dining room has to accommodate, so its dimensions drive every other decision in the space.
Wake Forest is among the longer drives in the service area, which makes shortlisting online before visiting especially worthwhile. Wake Forest blends historic downtown-area homes with substantial new construction, so the delivery path can range from a narrow original staircase to a wide new-build entry.
Capital Discount Furniture is a locally owned, family-run store at 3921 S Miami Blvd, Durham, NC 27703. We serve Wake Forest from that single 50,000-square-foot showroom. Wake Forest lies north-northeast of the showroom, commonly I-40 to US-1 north, or the Durham Freeway to I-540. What follows describes how the store actually works, constraints included.
What to Settle Before You Choose
Start with the room rather than the dining tables. These are the constraints that decide the outcome.
· the table's footprint with and without leaves
· clearance from table edge to wall or walkway
· whether the height suits your chairs or stools
· how the top material handles daily use
Narrow the list on the website before making the Wake Forest drive, then use the visit to confirm scale and comfort in person.
What to Compare in the Showroom
Our dining table selection covers table dimensions, shape, and extension options. In the showroom you can compare these directly:
· rectangular dining tables
· round and oval dining tables
· counter and bar-height tables
· tables with extension leaves
· coordinating chairs, benches, and stools

Getting It to the House
· Deliveries are booked for a set day with a roughly three-hour arrival window, which may vary further out of town.
· Deliveries run on our own trucks with our own crew, typically Monday through Saturday in the local market.
· Give us a day's notice to change a delivery; inside that window the fee applies regardless.
· Delivery pricing varies with the destination and the contents of the order rather than a flat rate.
· Choose White Glove Delivery and the crew handles indoor placement, assembly, and packaging removal.
· Payment in full comes before scheduling, whether you are taking delivery or picking up.
Two limits apply, and knowing them early avoids surprises. Where stairs or narrow openings make the move unsafe, we place the item in the closest corresponding room and you position it from there. Disposal of the piece being replaced is not part of delivery, so handle it before the truck arrives.
Have the route clear inside and mention any exterior obstruction ahead of time so the day is not lost. Secure children and pets while the crew is working, and check the order for accuracy before they leave.
All pickups are scheduled appointments, which lets the team stage the order in advance. The distance from Wake Forest means delivery is usually the more practical choice for anything sizable. Check that the piece fits your vehicle, bring padding and tie-downs, and plan on loading it yourself, since staff do not load vehicles.
Up to 60 days of free storage is available from point of sale, after which unarranged items may go to Restore.

Timing, Financing, and Warranty
On timing: many items are in stock and available for immediate or same-day delivery or pickup. Special orders vary with manufacturer availability, holidays, and custom work; the team can give a clearer estimate at or before point of sale.
On assembly: factory-direct items need minimal light assembly and arrive with instructions, hardware, and basic tools; delivery crews assemble and remove packaging.
On financing: we work with Snap, Synchrony, and Wells Fargo, with options for a range of credit types with monthly payments, subject to approval and each program's terms. Snap advertises approval decisions in seconds and lease-to-own amounts up to $5,000. We accept financing, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or cash.
On coverage: everything sold carries a manufacturer warranty, which varies by manufacturer, and an optional 5-year protection plan is available, priced by what is covered.
Behind the Showroom
Jenny, Scott, and their kids live in Apex, which is also where Capital Discount Furniture began. They built the business from the ground up, and they stay active in the community and with Hope Community Church, looking for ways to give back.
The result for Wake Forest customers is factory-direct pricing without a chain's markup, supported by a best price guarantee. Recognition includes more than 1,300 five-star Google reviews and WRAL Voters' Choice Award, Cary Living's Diamond Award, Indy Week's Best of the Triangle, and Cary Magazine's Maggy Award.
Brands on the floor include Vaughan-Bassett, Helix, Rowe, Kincaid, International Furniture Direct, Liberty Furniture, Stearns & Foster, and Ashley, among others. We also offer Renew Staging & Design, an in-house staging and design service.
We are open Monday-Friday 11am-7pm, Saturday 10am-5pm, Sunday 12pm-5pm. Before making the trip from Wake Forest, call (919) 600-1994 to check that the piece you want is out on the floor. Se Habla Espanol.

What Shoppers Ask Most
Will a large table fit through my door?
Measure the door opening, the hallway, and any turn, then compare against the table's full packaged dimensions. Flag anything tight before scheduling, since narrow paths can mean the piece stops at the closest room.
Can I narrow things down before driving from Wake Forest?
That is the efficient approach. Build a shortlist on the website first, then call to confirm those specific pieces are on the floor before you drive. Showroom stock changes, and confirming ahead protects a long trip.
Is a table with leaves worth it?
Often yes, if your seating needs change. A leaf lets a table sit smaller day to day and expand for guests. Confirm where the leaf stores, since some are self-storing and some are not.
Can you store my order if my place is not ready?
Yes, up to 60 days from point of sale at no charge. Beyond that, without an arrangement made ahead of time, items may be forfeited and donated to Restore, so talk to us before the window closes.
How should I care for a wood table top?
Follow the manufacturer's care guidance for the specific finish, since it varies. The USDA Forest Service Wood Handbook is a useful independent reference on how wood responds to humidity changes.
