We deliver across the UK and internationally. For deliveries outside the UK, please contact our Customer Service team on +44 (0)1235 433 930 for details and a quotation. Availability, timescales and charges for international deliveries vary depending on the service, accessibility, local customs regulations, transport mode and shipment size.
Lead times depend on the delivery type and your postcode:
If your order contains backordered items, it will be despatched once all items are in stock unless you arrange otherwise with our Customer Service team.
Delivery charges vary by order value and delivery type:
Delivery is free on orders over £1,500. The applicable charge will be shown at checkout.
Please visit our Delivery page for the full delivery fee grid, service details and timescales.
If your order contains a mix of delivery types (e.g. parcel and heavy items) or includes backordered items, they may be shipped separately by different couriers. You will only be charged for delivery once per order.
If all items are in stock and will be delivered via DPD, your order will be delivered in three to five days. If it is being delivered by our OKA 2-Person Delivery service, it will take 10 days. For international delivery, please allow up to 40 days. If your order contains an item which is out of stock and due in on backorder, the order will be despatched once all items are in stock. If you are experiencing issues with your delivery, or would like the in-stock items sent out separately, please contact our Customer Service team.
Heavy and Fragile deliveries are booked in advance so you can arrange to be available. If you miss your delivery, re-delivery charges will apply at the same rate as your original delivery charge.
Unfortunately, routes are pre-planned and fully booked, so we are unable to return the same day. You’ll be contacted to rebook your delivery.

We’ve introduced a tiered pricing system that more accurately reflects the cost of delivering large and heavy items. Like many businesses in our sector, we’ve faced significant increases in employment costs, the National Living Wage, and fuel prices. We still cover a substantial part of the delivery cost ourselves, and we’ve actually reduced the charge for orders under £250. We now also offer free delivery on orders over £1,500, and our prices remain in line with other premium homeware and furniture retailers.
Fragile deliveries require special handling, packaging, and extra care during transportation. We’ve moved to a tiered pricing system that better reflects these costs. Rising employment, wage, and fuel costs mean we no longer fully recover our expenses, but we continue to subsidise part of the cost. Free delivery is now available for orders over £1,500, and our charges remain competitive for our sector.
We’ve moved to a tiered system that better matches the real cost of delivering parcels. The cost of wages, fuel, and packaging has increased significantly, and while we’ve adjusted our rates, we still don’t recover the full cost of delivery. We now offer free delivery for orders over £1,500, and our pricing is in line with other premium brands.
If you placed your order before 1 September 2025, the old delivery and returns charges will apply, even if you return the item after this date. Orders placed on or after 1 September 2025 will be subject to the new charges.
Yes - delivery charges are calculated based on the value and type of goods you’ve ordered, regardless of whether you bought them online or in-store.
The updated restocking fee reflects the cost of processing returned items, including collection, handling, and repackaging. These costs have risen due to higher wages, employment costs, and fuel prices. We continue to absorb part of this cost, and the fee is in line with the rest of the premium furniture and homewares market.
If you placed your order before 1 September 2025, the old delivery and returns charges will apply, even if you return the item after this date. Orders placed on or after 1 September 2025 will be subject to the new charges.
If you cancel your entire order within 14 days of delivery, we will refund your original delivery charge. If you chose standard delivery, the full delivery charge will be refunded. If you chose express delivery, we will refund the standard delivery portion only (express upgrades are non-refundable). For heavy or fragile items, the full delivery charge will be refunded, as this is the only delivery method offered. If you return only part of your order, delivery charges are not refunded. However, if your return is due to a faulty or damaged item, we will refund your delivery charge in full.
No – the collection charge is based on the value of the items you’re returning, not the value of your original order.

If you can't see all the items you've ordered on your despatch email or invoice, it means the missing items are either temporarily out of stock, or are part of a separate delivery. Please refer to the original order confirmation which will have all the items and due dates on it. If items are not showing on an invoice it means they have not yet been processed and therefore not been charged for.

Our new free Click & Collect service is available for eligible orders placed on or after 22 September 2026 and uses stock already held at the selected store.
Before 22 September 2026, the service called Click & Collect used stock sent from our warehouse to the selected store and was subject to a delivery charge. This service is now called Ship to Store.
Orders placed before 22 September 2026 remain subject to the service and delivery charge agreed when the order was placed.
Our website is constantly updated with current stock availability. You can also check in-store with a member of the team or call our Customer Service team.

Chelsea has a selection of limited-edition items, while South Godstone offers Outlet items that are ex-display, seconds or end-of-line pieces. Likewise, we also have an online Outlet featuring products not found in our Outlet stores. These are all end-of-line items in excellent condition.
The majority of our collection is available to view in our two flagship stores – Chelsea and Froxfield. In larger stores, we try to show highlights and best sellers from our collection (alongside a selection of outdoor furniture in our country stores), and in smaller stores – such as OKA at Hoopers, Tunbridge Wells – we stock smaller pieces of furniture and lots of accessories to give you a taste of the full range.

With furniture deliveries, if you're not completely satisfied with your order when it arrives, our two-man delivery team can take it away free of charge. If you reside in the UK, you can return your items up to 14 days after you've accepted a delivery, but please note this will incur a collection charge of £50, which will be deducted from the refund amount. For more information on how to request a return, please view our returns page here.
We offer 14 days from delivery for you to decide if your purchase is right for you. If your OKA item develops a manufacturing fault within six months of purchase, we will repair or replace it free of charge, or exchange it for a like-for-like item if the original is out of stock. For more information, see our Returns page.
Our delivery team will always try to place your furniture in the room of your choice. However, if it’s not possible due to access restrictions, the item will need to be returned via our standard collection process. From 1 September 2025, our delivery teams are no longer able to take items back on the same day if refused at delivery, as doing so delays the rest of the route. Instead, a collection will be booked for a later date, and a collection fee will apply.
Collection charges for returned items are based on the value and type of goods being collected. Please see our Returns Information for the current charges.
If your items were delivered by DPD, you will need to contact our Customer Service team within 14 days of delivery to arrange the return. You can also start your return via our Returns Portal.
