Very well packaged with styrofoam corners and styrofoam base.  Since it was very heavy, we cut the box at the seam and removed the box, rather than trying to tip it over and pull the box off.  I hand it to the company that manufactures this filing cabinet, best packaging I've seen on any product!  

The actual filing cabinet is very well made and we are pleased with it.  It is on rolling wheels, but we may eventually put casters under them to keep it more stable.  The more files (weight) we add, the less it rolls on the hardwood floor.

The color is definitely white.  We have an ivory bench next to it and the filing cabinet is white.  

If we end up ordering two filing cabinets to make a desk, we'll be ordering this exact cabinet.

Thank you for a great shopping experience.
