We have tried to make the terms and conditions as simple as possible, however should you have any comments or complaints about the terms and conditions or the website, please email us at customerservice@georgestreet.co.uk or call us on 01633 214 241.

1. Price and Payment

All furniture on this website is offered at the price shown on screen and is inclusive of VAT unless stated otherwise. The prices of products do not include the cost of delivery. Payment for goods may be by secure Debit/Credit Card.

Note: If you choose to pay by Credit/Debit card we will only deliver to the address the card is registered to. If this is unsuitable for you please contact us to arrange an alternative payment method.

The prices for the goods are those stated on the web site but these may be subject to correction without any liability on the part of the seller. Delivery may be charged in addition to the prices quoted on each item; this will be shown in the checkout pages.

Once an Order Request has been made, we will send you an e-mail confirming our receipt of that order. This is NOT an acceptance of the order. We reserve the right not to accept your order. We review all orders and will acknowledge acceptance with an ‘Order Acceptance’ e-mail.

2. Delivery

2.1 Delivery Charge

The delivery charge is;

  • £20 for postcodes beginning with – NP, CF, SA & GL
  • £30 for postcodes beginning with – BS, BA, SN, HR, LD, WR & TA
  • £40 – Non Local – All other postcodes within Mainland UK.
  • NO CHARGE – for customers who wish to pick up items from our Newport Warehouse

George Street Furnishers’ deliver your goods using our own delivery vans and also employ nationally recognised courier services for deliveries outside our local area. Upon request, George Street Furnishers will deliver to non-local postcodes with one of its vans, subject to extra charges. Please contact us at customerservice@georgestreet.co.uk or call us on 01633 214 241 in order to discuss your delivery options.

2.2 Delivery Times

Once we have processed your order we attempt to deliver all orders within the time frame specified. Delivery times are estimates given to us by manufacturers.

Due to the difficult logistics of furniture delivery we cannot give a specific time of delivery. If requested we will endeavour to advice you an AM or PM time.

We aim to deliver your furniture within the time quoted on our website when you place your order. If circumstances change, we will contact you. If, however, it is delayed due to circumstances beyond our control, then we cannot accept any liability for consequential loss. Any changes in the expected delivery time will be e-mailed to you 24 hours before delivery.

If you require goods to be delivered later or earlier than the time stated on the web site, please contact us to arrange for a separate quotation either by telephone or e-mail.

2.3 Assembly

Many items require simple self assembly. For those in our local area, we will assemble such items for you and remove all packaging, subject to your satisfaction of the product.

Delivery of such items outside our local area is usually undertaken by a courier and therefore self assembly is required.

Certain items such as wardrobes require full/more complicated assembly and therefore are not assembled by us on delivery or a courier. An extra charge can be added for assembly of such items within local and non-local delivery. Please contact us at customerservice@georgestreet.co.uk or call us on 01633 214 241 and we would be happy to discuss further delivery and assembly options with you.

2.4 Access

It is YOUR responsibility to ensure there is adequate access and space to receive the goods on delivery. Delivery will be made to the GROUND entrance, movement beyond this point may be undertaken by our delivery staff, but this would be at your responsibility. They will remove all wrappings and packaging and dispose of them for you.

If we use a carrier to deliver your goods, normally to places outside our normal delivery area, packaging will remain on the goods and will have to be disposed of by the customer.

Our delivery team or carrier will NOT remove or dispose of unwanted furniture from the premises.

If windows or doors are required to be removed the customer must ensure that this is carried out before the delivery arrives, and entirely at the customers risk and cost. This will be done by arrangement between us and the customer and carried out at the arranged time. There will be an extra charge if this arrangement is carried out other than on our normal delivery day.

All deliveries must be signed for. If you are out when our delivery team arrives, they will leave a card with a contact number for you to call them and arrange a delivery at a future date. Please note that there may be an additional charge for this.

2.5 Ownership and Risk

You will become the owner of the goods (and be liable for the loss or destruction of the goods) at the time of delivery, provided that we have received payment in full for the goods

For security reasons we are unable to deliver to addresses which are not the card holders address.

3. Access to the destination room

Before placing an order, please check that the items of furniture will fit through any passages, stairwells, landings and doorways on the way to the destination room. Please remove any pictures, mirrors, light fittings etc before the furniture is brought into the house.

As part of the checkout process, you will be requested to confirm that you have checked access thoroughly.

George Street Furnishers’ are not responsible for furniture that cannot be delivered due to inadequate entry into or throughout your property. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that access is possible. Delivery will be made to the ground floor entrance; any further movement beyond this point may be undertaken by our delivery staff but would be at the customer's sole responsibility. Refunds or Cancellations are not accepted.

Should you have any concerns over access, then please note them on the comments box on the order or contact us by e-mail or on 01633 214241 9am - 5 pm Monday to Friday

4. Returns - Damaged and Defective Goods

If upon receipt of delivery you find that your goods are damaged or incorrect please notify us within 24 hours of your delivery date by calling 01633 214 241 or email us at customerservice@georgestreet.co.uk.

You will then be contacted about the issue and it will be dealt with promptly.

The collection of goods will be arranged through our nominated delivery carrier. In the case of faulty goods, damaged goods or goods that have been sent incorrectly, George Street Furnisher's will pay for the return of these goods.

Please keep any incorrect products purchased in a saleable condition and retain the original packaging in the condition it was provided.

5. 7 Day Cooling Off Period (online customers)

You have the unconditional right to cancel your order within 7 working days without having to give us a reason.

In the interests of hygiene and health and safety we cannot accept return of certain goods, for example a mattress which has been taken out of its sealed packaging, in which it was delivered, and special order or bespoke items ordered.

The 7 working days period start from the day after the day that you receive the goods. We will provide a full refund for the purchase price of the goods, but not any delivery charges. Please note that you will have to pay the return delivery cost of the goods to us, which depending on the item weight may vary between £25 and £100 + VAT.

All goods must be unopened and in perfect condition. We unconditionally reserve the right to not refund if the goods are not returned in a suitable condition.

If you are not satisfied with any of the goods delivered, you must contact us on 01633 214 241 or at customerservice@georgestreet.co.uk.
