- Check measurements of furniture and access to your home
- Walk the route from lorry to room
- Be helpful - clear and protect the route from lorry to room
- Retain the original packaging and S/C number
- Check your new furniture for damage or items missing
It is important to check the measurements of your chosen furniture on our website and ensure there is adequate doorway and stair access. In the instance that a non faulty item has to be returned after dispatch due to reasons beyond the control of Oak Furniture Land (including aborted deliveries by the customer), the customer will be subject to return fees.
Go to the point in your home or apartment building where the delivery will begin and walk the path that the delivery team will take to carry your new furniture into your room of choice. Take your tape measure with you to measure any unusual door or ceiling heights or other twists and turns that might cause a problem. Your order will usually be delivered via a large lorry, so please be sure your property is accessible for this size of vehicle and call us prior to delivery if not. Problems can occur with long gravel driveways with tight access so please inform us prior to dispatch if this is applicable.
Please try to make the delivery as easy as possible for your delivery team. It is helpful if you can be at your residence to accept the delivery, because no one knows your home better than you do. If you are unavailable to accept the delivery yourself, please note that there must be someone over the age of 16 at your property to take the delivery for you.
Remove any tripping hazards, furniture, ornaments or wall fixtures that will constrict the path. Please note that our drivers are not allowed to remove their shoes due to health and safety reasons. It is your responsibility to protect your floors and carpets. We recommend using sturdy brown paper secured with masking tape, however heavier items may require more substantial, purpose-made floor protection. Please judge what level of floor protection might be needed yourself and ensure that it is properly positioned before the delivery team arrives.
Please be aware that our delivery team will not unwrap or assemble any items. Our drivers operate to a strict timetable and it is important that any other deliveries that day can be met on time. It is important to unpack the items as carefully as possible and retain the original packaging until you are completely happy that there are no issues with your order. Please keep the white label with the S/C number printed on it (found on the furniture) as you will need to include this in any future correspondence with us.
