I’ve placed my order, what happens next?

How long will my furniture/items take to arrive?
This will depend on the products you have ordered. Our normal delivery time is between 3 to 4 weeks. If we expect it to be any longer then you will be advised at the point of order.
How will I know when my furniture is ready?
When your furniture is ready, you will be contacted by email or telephone to arrange a mutually convenient delivery date and time (with a 2-3 hour delivery slot).
Can I delay delivery once I have placed an order?
Unfortunately we do not have the facility to store your product for any length of time therefore it is very important that you specify a ‘not before date’ if this is relevant to you.
Will all items be delivered together?
For most orders we will ensure that your full order is compiled so you receive one complete delivery regardless of how many pieces you order.
The access to my home is quite tight, what should I do?
It is important that you are sure that the product you are purchasing can be delivered (safely) into your home and into your chosen location. The sizes of each product are shown in the brochures so that you can take measurements and confirm this. If you are unsure in any way, please discuss any possible restrictions with our sales staff so that we can conduct a home survey prior to delivery to determine the safest and most efficient access route with you. You should think about vehicle access, lifts and tight stairs for example. If windows or doors need to be removed in order for access to be gained it is your responsibility to arrange this at your cost and risk. Furniture will not be lifted over garden fences or boundary walls.
Will you assemble furniture when delivering?
The majority of our furniture is delivered in one piece and does not require assembly. Beds are assembled on site. Some of the larger furniture items like Wardrobes and Dressers can come apart for delivery and will be re-assembled in situ. All furniture will be assembled and placed in the position of your choice. Our delivery team will ensure that it is level and functioning properly before they leave. They will also check you are satisfied before they leave. All product packaging will be removed from site.
How can I find out product dimensions?
Dimensions can be found in the brochures below each item code. Remember to check any doorways and stairwells the product will have to pass through to ensure your order will fit in the room of your choice.
Please ask our sales staff which products in our ranges come in sections for delivery.
Are the goods made in the UK?
All of our furniture is made in the UK and is sourced from local factories in Wiltshire and Somerset.
Our home accessories such as mirrors, cushions, clocks and decorative items are sourced from across the world.
Can I cancel my order?
You can cancel your order and receive a full refund (less deposit) if you change your mind for any reason from the time of placing your order up to the expiry of 7 working days starting the day after the date the goods are delivered. Just email us to let us know – don’t forget to include your order number. After this date our cancellation policy depends on the type of product that you have ordered as some items are made especially for you, to your specifications.
How can I arrange for removal of my old furniture?
The British Heart Foundation, Imperial Charity or similar organisations will collect your old furniture for free to help raise funds for their charity. Make sure you arrange the collection only once your furniture delivery date is confirmed. Please note that most charitable organisations can only collect furniture that is in a saleable condition, free from wear and tear and heavy stains and holds a valid fire safety label.
I cannot donate my old furniture to a charity as it is not re-saleable, how can I easily and cheaply get rid of it responsibly?
If your furniture is not suitable for resale then you could call a junk company such as AnyJunk on 0207 819 9000. Collection charges will apply. Some Auction Rooms will also collect furniture.

A care kit is available to purchase in store, these contain details of how to maintain our products and include products to help you do this.
