GENERAL INFORMATION
Your order will be shipped via the most appropriate method based on the weight and size of your furniture. If possible, according to UPS/FEDEX weight/size limits, your order will ship via UPS/FEDEX. Packages that exceed UPS/FEDEX weight and size limits will be shipped via Motor Freight Company.
Common carrier deliveries are only performed Monday through Friday. The shipping company who is obligated to fulfill delivery of your order will contact you by phone prior to delivery to establish an approximate time for you to receive your delivery. Delivery address must be accessible to semi-trailer truck for non-UPS size shipments. Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico and international customers are welcome to contact us for a freight quotation.
DELIVERY TIME. We have one of the shortest delivery times in the industry. Most items are in stock (in our warehouse) and will be shipped within 4 - 7 business days of purchase. Delivery takes another 3 - 15 business days. If the shipping time takes longer than this, you will be contacted by our customer service department with other options. We will send you a tracking number after the items have been shipped.
PLEASE NOTE that, like any retailer or distributor shipping nationwide, Home Furniture Mart ships via national and regional parcel, freight and moving companies. Although we use the largest and most well-known carriers, we are not responsible for delays in transit, freight company employee conduct, missed delivery appointments or damages to the customer's premises.
Home Furniture Mart will not accept claims, returns or cancellations due to delays in delivery by Transportation Companies.
SHIPPING OPTIONS / DELIVERY METHODS.
Home Furniture Mart requires a signature at time of delivery. If you make arrangements for someone else to accept your delivery, you still hold the same responsibilities as if you signed for the shipment. If you make arrangements for the carrier to leave the merchandise without a signature, you wave all rights and release Home Furniture Mart from all responsibility regarding the shipment. Any exception to this voids Home Furniture Mart's responsibility for the condition of the merchandise or other delivery issues.
