Delivery
We understand that life can be busy and waiting for a delivery can be inconvenient. That’s why we offer two delivery services.
- Neptune Home Delivery Service
For large orders, or those containing large-scale furniture items, we provide our Neptune Home Delivery Service with charges based on the required service level.
We’ll contact you in advance to arrange a convenient date and time for your delivery:
- For deliveries to UK Mainland and Northern Ireland, we aim to deliver to you within 21 days from your product. This is on top of any wait for your item to become available.
- Your delivery date is not confirmed until our Home Delivery Bookings team contacts you. The ‘Track My Order’ feature is not applicable this service.
Standard delivery (£30/€40)
- Items will be delivered to your doorstep or entrance.
- No assembly or installation is included.
- For certain postcodes, deliveries may be handled by a single person and outsourced, meaning packaging won’t be removed.
Premium delivery (£60/€80)
- Your order will be delivered into the room of your choice.
- Includes unboxing, assembly, and removal of all packaging for recycling.
- Handled by a two-person delivery crew.
Project delivery (£150/€190)
- Ideal for large, high-value, or complex orders like Chawton modular furniture, kitchens, or home design projects.
- Chawton furniture: items up to two tiers high will be assembled; taller pieces will be delivered boxed.
- Home design projects: includes unpacking and placement of all items, including large accessories.
- Kitchens and bathrooms: Delivered boxed to the room of your choice.
- Managed by a specialised two-person team, with several hours allocated on-site for careful handling and setup.
2. Courier delivery
Smaller in-stock items like accessories, lighting, footstools, rugs, and dining chairs are delivered to mainland UK via our approved courier within 5 days.
If your order contains a mix of larger furniture pieces and smaller accessories, they are likely to be dispatched separately, but you will only be charged for the Neptune Home Delivery Service.
- Standard delivery fee: £6.95 for orders under £150 (€30 for orders under €250 in Ireland).
- Next day delivery: £9.95, available on parcel deliveries to the UK only. Order before 1pm, no minimum spend.
- Free standard delivery: on orders over £150 (€250 in Ireland).
- Highlands and Islands: For parcel deliveries, it’s £17.50, and for furniture deliveries, it’s £300 (excluding ferry charges). The standard service for these areas is pallet kerbside delivery.
- International orders: For deliveries outside mainland UK (excluding Northern Ireland), items will be sent via our international delivery partners. In some cases, our Neptune Home Delivery Service is available if preferred, with pricing provided separately.
Delivery timeframes:
- Parcel deliveries: If your order is in-stock and suitable for parcel delivery to mainland UK, our approved couriers will deliver it within 5 days. Orders placed before 1pm are eligible for our next day delivery option.
- Neptune Home Delivery Service: For larger products, we offer delivery via our Neptune Home Delivery Service within 21 days (UK mainland and Northern Ireland only).
- Estimated delivery: For orders with estimated delivery times, we’ll either ship them as soon as they arrive or contact you to arrange delivery.
- International deliveries: If you’re ordering from outside mainland UK or Northern Ireland, items will be shipped through our international delivery partners.
While we always do our very best to deliver your order on the specified day, unforeseen delays may occasionally occur. It goes without saying that we’ll reschedule your delivery as soon as possible. Deliveries to remote locations may take a little longer. Additionally. your order might be dispatched from different locations and arrive separately, but there will be no extra charge.
Cancellations and returns
While we hope that you’ll be thrilled with your new Neptune design, if you’re not that’s fine too.
Cancellations
If you wish to cancel an order for any of our furniture, accessories, or home decorating materials, you can do so prior to despatch.
Made to order - When it comes to designs that are made to order, if you wish to cancel, you will need to do so within 7 days of placing your order to be fully refunded. You will not be able to cancel, amend or return your made to order design(s) once the 7 days has passed.
Painted to order - When it comes to designs that are painted to order and our painted fitted pieces (kitchens, bathroom cabinets, Buckland bench seating, Pembroke shelving and Chawton), if you wish to cancel, you will need to do so 28 days prior to your delivery date to be fully refunded. You will not be able to cancel, amend or return your painted to order products, once the 28 days has begun.
Returns
We have a 28 days returns policy, and we’ll happily take back most products as long as it’s in its original packaging (unless we took this away for you) and without any signs of use.
Other than that, there are a few things to know:
- You can return your delivery on the day if you’re not absolutely happy with it. Just let us know before we leave, and we’ll take it away for no additional charge. We’re afraid that we won’t be able to refund your delivery charge.
- For courier delivered items bought online, parcel collection is £9.95 (or €19 in Ireland).
- For furniture and larger accessories delivered with our white glove service, we’ll need to charge £50 (£150 outside mainland UK – Highlands and Islands) to pick up the piece you’re returning, unless you tell us when we deliver it and we take it back with us free of charge.
- You can only return a mattress if it’s still in its plastic wrapping.
- You cannot return cut to order fabric.
- And, if you bought your design in store, please return it to a store in the same country (UK or Ireland).
Seasonal reductions
- You’re not able to return or exchange products in our sale or seasonal reductions, unless they’re faulty and are not covered by our guarantees, or you bought them online and you tell us you'd like to return them within 14 days of receipt.
We take our delivery service seriously and we design our packaging to make sure that what’s inside is wrapped up safe and tight. But in the (very) unlikely event that you spot something not quite right, just let us know as soon as you spot the problem along with some photos if you can, and we’ll get it sorted.
To arrange a return please complete the online returns form on our website, or just call us. You can also visit any standalone Neptune store if you’re returning any accessories.
The only other thing to say is that, if you’re using our kitchen or home design services, you might order things such as appliances and taps through us that come from one of our third-party suppliers. Their own returns and guarantees policies will apply, rather than ours.
Rest assured that your statutory rights are unaffected.
