- Where do you deliver?
-
As standard we deliver within 50 miles of any of our stores, but can arrange for delivery anywhere in the UK mainland. Charges for this are dependent on the furniture being delivered and the distance they have to go. Please call us to enquire if we can deliver to you. If you live within a Congestion Charge Zone please notify us when you place your order, additional charges may apply. We only deliver to the Ground Floor of a property, however, should you wish for the furniture to be taken upstairs, our delivery crew will happily do this for you depending on the ease of access. Although every bit of care is taken, please note Joysleep do not accept any responsibility for damage that might occur to a property during delivery. The delivery crew might ask you to sign a liability disclaimer for deliveries that require difficult manouvering or limited access.
- Do you charge for delivery?
-
Yes. As our prices are the very best on the market it is not always possible to offer free deliveries. Standard deliveries can be charged at £50 and include a minimum of 2 people who will deliver. Some items carry a higher delivery charge due to the nature of the goods, for example Stone dining tables, as the length of time taken is much longer due to the extra care required during delivery. Often on these deliveries more than 2 members of our delivery crew might be present.
- What days do you deliver?
-
We deliver Monday to Friday only, between the hours of 9am to 6pm. This does not include bank holidays and public holidays.
- When will my furniture be delivered?
-
Once your furniture has been fully paid for, the respective store will alert the distribution centre. The distributiuon centre endevour to call you within 2 working days to arrange a delivery with you.
- Can I choose a day or time for my delivery?
-
We aim to deliver your order as quickly as possible and usually no later than 7 days after it becomes available. We would appreciate you accepting delivery on the same basis. We put every effort into arranging delivery on a convenient day with you, however this is not always possible as we might not be in the specific area. We do not give a specific time in the day for delivery due to varying road traffic conditions and unexpected delays with other deliveries, however can give an indication of AM or PM. More accurate time information can be obtained by calling our distribution centre on the morning of delivery on 02087950838. We can arrange for a call to you on a designated number up to one hour before the actual delivery. This service must be organised in advance.
- If my delivery is already booked, can I cancel it?
-
Yes, providing we are notified with a minimum 48 hours notice we will reschedule your delivery with no extra charge. You can either phone the store you purchased through, phone the distribution centre on 02087950838 or send an email to distribution@joysleep.co.uk. If a delivery is cancelled up to 24 hours before the day it is due to be delivered, we can reschedule your delivery to another day but you might face a redelivery charge.
- What happens on the day of delivery?
-
If you have requested a call before delivery, you will receive it alerting you that the delivery team will be with you in due course. Before they arrive please ensure that the delivery team has clear access to the room in which you want your furniture placed, any items that could get damaged should be removed, i.e. tables, ornaments, lamps, light shades, pictures, mirrors etc. Eventhough every effort will be made by the delivery team to avoid any damages, wooden floors can be scratched and carpets can be marked; it is your responsibility to ensure that your floor is protected against such eventualities, as we will not accept any liability in this regard. For Health and Safety reasons our delivery personnel can only deliver via normal doorways and stairways and cannot remove their footwear. On the day of delivery ensure that an adult is available at the delivery address to carefully check the unwrapped furniture and sign and acknowledge receipt in a safe and satisfactory condition by filing in the delivery note. Please record any defect immediately on the delivery note and sign accordingly. Assuming your goods aren't self-assembly, we will position the furniture as directed.
- Will you assemble my furniture?
-
If the delivery is made by our own vans and staff then we will unpack all your furniture and remove all waste packaging for recycling. This is part of our service. It is advisable that our delivery personnel unpack the furniture so that it can be checked as we do not accept complaints once our drivers have left the premises. The delivery team will assemble the furniture if this service has been paid for.
- What happens if I am out when you try to deliver?
-
As all deliveries need to be signed for, we will be unable to leave your furniture and it will be returned to the distribution centre. Joysleep will contact you to arrange a further delivery date. There will be a re-delivery charge.
- What if my furniture does not fit?
-
When ordering furniture it is important to check that it will fit into your house and your room. Please check all doors, stairways and the space it has to go into carefully. If the worst happens and it really won't fit in, we will do our utmost to help you come up with an alternative. If during delivery the item will not fit through access routes within the property, for example, the front door, the delivery team can dismantle and reassemble most items (most sofas) in order to get them in. This is on a chargeable basis and can be negotiated with the store in advance or the delivery crew on the day. Items that are more difficult to dismantle may require more detailed work. Joysleep can either leave these goods with you or on a chargeable basis take them back to the distribution centre, where an upholsterer or dismantler can be called in to take the item apart and then reassemble the items in your property once delivered.
- Can Joysleep Store my furniture?
-
Unfortunately, Joysleep are unable to store your furniture for longer than 7 days. If you require storage for longer than this, we can arrange it on a chargeable basis dependent on the order and number of pieces. By delivering goods promptly, as soon as we receive them, we can give you the best value for money.
- Can you take my old furniture away?
-
For a small charge we will take away the furniture you are replacing (please call the store for information). This service is only offered if we deliver using our own vehicles. You may however like to phone your local council who may do this for free. There are also a number of charitable organisations who will remove furniture. Please speak to the store about this service as soon as possible and prior to the delivery. Extra costs may be incurred if the items are large or require dismantling. The delivery crew may refuse to take old furniture away if it is in a particularly soiled condition (even if this service has been paid for).
- What happens if my furniture arrives damaged?
-
Naturally we endeavour to deliver all our furniture in good condition. At Joysleep we have spent many hours talking to our suppliers about packing and shipping our products so they arrive safely. We are constantly looking for ways to improve these standards. We also pride ourselves on having an excellent delivery team. It is disappointing for you and us when occasionally things go wrong. When your order has been unwrapped in your home and there are signs of transit damage, this is what to expect:
- If the furniture is useable, despite the damage, we are happy for you to go ahead and use it.
- The Joysleep delivery team will detail the problem on the delivery note. They will ask you to sign it. They may also take photographs to accompany the paperwork.
- The form will be returned to the delivering store. It will be logged against your order number, and assessed for action.
- We will organise a technician to contact you and arrange to visit and repair the problem to manufacturing standards, generally within 7 days. If he/she cannot resolve the matter on the first visit and parts are required, we will endeavour to source them as quickly as possible.
- In the event that a repair cannot be made, we will replace the furniture, or give a full refund. The goods that are deemed faulty revert to the ownership of Joysleep, and must be in our possession before monies are refunded.
- A full refund shall be limited to the original purchase price paid for the unsatisfactory merchandise.
- Your statutory rights are not affected
