Standard Shipping Charge
Standard shipping charges are based on the total value of merchandise shipped to each address. We only offer Standard Shipping to the 48 contiguous United States. Accessories and gift items are shipped via Standard Shipping with FedEx. We do not offer international shipping at this time.
Standard shipping (FedEx) of in-stock non-furniture items will arrive in approximately 4-9 business days (Monday through Friday). Items ordered at the same time may not arrive in the same shipment. Additional delivery charges may apply to items that are too large or bulky to be accommodated by our standard shipping charges.
Furniture Delivery
Furniture and other large items are shipped via Furniture Delivery. Outside of the Houston area we only offer Front Door delivery. All furniture orders will be shipped by default with our Front Door Delivery service. All long distance furniture deliveries will be scheduled Monday through Friday during daytime hours.
Expedited delivery is not an option for Front Door delivery service. The customer is responsible for ensuring that the shipping information listed on the order is accurate. Once shipped, any changes in your shipping address will result in additional shipping charges.
Front Door Delivery is the default delivery option for all furniture and large items. Front Door Delivery charge is automatically applied on a per item basis to the order. For more information, please email us at shop@sophisticatedlivingfurniture.com.
- Front Door Delivery: Includes delivery to the first threshold (front door, curbside, garage, lobby, or loading dock; depending on delivery conditions) and a 4 hour delivery window. Your in-stock furniture will be delivered in approximately 2 to 3 weeks. On occasion, Front Door Delivery service will only have a one person delivery team, so it is recommended to have 1 or more people help you with certain Front Door Delivery orders. You will be responsible for unpacking, debris removal, and all applicable assembly.
