Shipping & Delivery

Furniture Delivery Time

Our painted and upholstered furniture is built to order. The time it takes to build and complete the delivery of an order depends on the size and complexity, as well as the delivery location. If you have a deadline to meet, it is best to call us at 866.366.3505. We can create a delivery plan that best fits your needs.

Once your order is built and has shipped, you will receive an email from our Shipping Department with an anticipated delivery timeline for your specific order. Our lead times and shipping times vary from season to season. Please note: If your order contains multiple items, you may receive multiple deliveries. Please call a Customer Service Associate at 866.366.3505 to verify your specific lead time or discuss delivery expectations when placing an order.

*A Special Note About Receiving Warehouses
Whether your order ships via White Glove or Standard, if you are using a receiver for furniture delivery, please understand that you are responsible for assigning someone to meet and inspect the order if you cannot be there yourself.

Product Inspection Upon Delivery

Once the order is received and signed for it is considered accepted and in perfect condition unless specifically noted otherwise on the packing slip. It is essential and mandatory company policy that customers must fully inspect their furniture orders before signing off on paperwork from the delivery company. Please note that the delivery company must stay and wait for you to inspect your order. A general note written or stamped on the packing slip stating the order was received but not inspected will result in a null and void claim if filed. Any damage must be noted on the packing slip at the time of delivery. Make sure you get a copy of the packing slip before the delivery company leaves. Following the delivery and inspection, we request that you promptly contact us within 48-hours to report any damage at customercare@mainecottage.com or 866-366-3505.
