Design Quarters

SHIPPING POLICY

We currently ship exclusively to addresses within the continental US.

NON-BULKY PRODUCTS:

When a product is in stock, we ship within 2 to 6 business days. We use International Express Delivery for products imported from Europe, Express Delivery for fragile or high-value products delivered from the US and Standard Delivery for all other products. We charge $65 for International Express Delivery, $30 for Express Delivery and $15 for Standard Delivery. For a limited time, we offer free shipping on a selection of lighting products and rugs. 

BULKY PRODUCTS:

Customers are responsible for determining if a piece of furniture or lighting is the right size for their home (including determining if the packages constituting their order can be delivered through the doors, elevators, stairs and corridors to their room of choice). Design Quarters will not refund orders that are refused by customers due to size/dimensions. Please contact us at contact@designquarters.com if you need assistance before placing your order, we are happy to help.

If a product does not ship within the expected ship date range quoted on your order, we will inform you by email.

We will accept cancellation of your order for items that have not shipped or that are on backorder. Once an item has shipped, cancellation is not possible. Custom and special order items can be cancelled within 24 hours only.
