Some furniture and most carpets are custommade at the time of order and require manufacturing time. Shipping times depend on the item but are generally between 2 – 8 weeks. During the peak season of May to October, the lead time can be an additional 24 weeks.

We recommend fully assembled items for your new centre to make your life easier during set up.

DELIVERY OPTIONS Hold until ready to receive – Request this service when your new facility is under construction or closed temporarily.
