Small Parcel Items weighing less than 150 lbs will usually be shipped via UPS or FedEx Ground. Depending on how close you are to the shipping warehouse, your item will usually arrive between 4 and 10 business days after it leaves the warehouse. Unfortunately, none of the shipping companies used by I Like Furniture.com deliver to PO Box, APO, or FPO addresses. As a result, we do not ship to PO Box, APO, or FPO addresses.
Truck Freight – "Curbside" Many items we sell are too large or too heavy to ship using a Small Parcel carrier. Therefore, our best option is to ship it to you using a common carrier. Truck freight is different than standard UPS or FedEx in that you will be responsible for carrying the product from the back of the truck. Truck Freight also differs from Small Parcel in that you will be contacted by the shipping carrier to schedule a delivery appointment. Most companies offer appointment windows (usually 2-4 hours) between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday. If you are ordering a very large item, please keep in mind that you may need a couple of people to help unload it. Alternatively, most truck freight companies offer additional services to help you move items from the truck into your house. Once we email you the tracking information you can contact the shipper directly to inquire about additional services. You would be responsible for directly paying the truck freight carrier for any additional services. After your order is picked up by the freight carrier, it will usually arrive in 4-7 business days.
Truck Freight – "Threshold" or also known as Over-The-Threshold This method is just like "Truck Freight – Curbside" (see above), only the truck freight company will deliver your order to inside the threshold of your residence. If you live in a home with a garage this means the product will be left in your garage. If you do not have a garage the product will be left in your front entrance. If you live in an apartment building or condo the product will be carried up two flights of stairs from the building threshold (4-15 steps = 1 flight). Unfortunately, the delivery personnel are not authorized to perform any assembly services nor can they put the delivery in the room of your choice. Once we email you the tracking information you can contact the shipper directly to arrange for any additional services that you would like. You will be responsible for directly paying the truck freight carrier for these additional services. The product will be left in the original packaging. After your order is picked up by the freight carrier, it will usually arrive in 7-10 business days.

The most important thing to remember about truck freight is that you must inspect your order at the time of delivery. It is absolutely necessary for you to thoroughly inspect every carton and/or piece and to note any damage on the form the delivery company has you sign. By indicating the nature of damage in writing, all parties then have proof of delivery documentation and the issue can then be easily addressed and resolved. If you do not indicate the damage, it absolves all parties from any further liability. But, by indicating the specific damage, it will allow us to prove damage to the freight carrier and/or delivery company. Failure to write this on the delivery ticket may affect your ability to receive a return or replacement. And if a carton has any damage, or if there is any reason for you to be at all concerned about damage, please write "PRODUCT DAMAGED" clearly on the sheet that they ask you to sign. This simply insures that if there is any damage, it will be easy for all parties to take care of the problem. Also, it is imperative that you report any damage to info@ilikefurniture.com within 3 business days from date of receipt. And you must follow-up with us to be sure we received the information from you within the 3 business days time frame. Otherwise, we will not be able to file a claim to recover the cost and replace and/or repair the damaged item.
REFUSAL OF DELIVERY
If you refuse delivery of the item when it reaches your home or place of business, you will be charged for all shipping costs, including the cost to return the item to the manufacturer. You will also be charged for any bank credit card fees that have been incurred along with handling and restocking fee imposed on us by our manufacturers and suppliers. Please note that orders can only be canceled before they ship. If you refuse an order, it will fall under our standard return policy, which is subject to a deduction of round trip shipping from your refund. We cannot cancel an order unless we receive your request in writing to info@ilikefurniture.com and prior to shipment. We also cannot cancel or change a Special Fabric Order once the order has been placed. There are no exceptions.
