Delivery Charge
Free shipping on all orders.
Once your order has been processed, the furniture will be delivered to our warehouse for inspection. After inspection, we will coordinate with local delivery carriers to ship the products to your address, with no shipping fees charged to you at any stage.
Basic Delivery Service:
Curbside delivery (carriers will unload the furniture at your front door, apartment lobby, or driveway; in-home moving, stair access, or assembly are not included, and no extra fees apply).
Premium Delivery Service:
White-glove delivery (for large furniture—includes delivery to a specified room, stair access (if no lift is available, please confirm in advance), unpacking, packaging disposal, and basic assembly such as installing table legs). This service requires a separate fee. Please consult customer service for a customised quote when placing your order.
Stage | Timeframe | Details |
Order Processing | 7–14 Business day | All items (including custom-made ones) go through production, strict quality checks, and secure packaging. Complex custom orders (e.g., oversized furniture) may take longer—we will notify you separately. |
Int’l Ocean Freight | 35–49 Business day | After shipment, goods take 35–49 Business day to reach a U.K. port (includes export/import customs clearance and ocean shipping). Delays from severe weather, route changes, or customs inspections will be communicated promptly. |
Customs & Warehouse Transfer | 3–7 Business day | After passing U.K. customs, goods are transferred to our U.K. warehouse. Rarely, extra time may be needed for extended customs checks or port congestion. |
U.K. Local Delivery | 7–14 Business day | After warehouse inspection, local carriers deliver to your address. Time varies slightly by region. |
Total Delivery Time | 49–63 Business day | Sum of the above stages. Due to large furniture production and international shipping, the cycle is relatively long—confirm this timeframe before ordering (free shipping is unaffected). |
4. Additional Fees (Only for Special Cases; Basic Delivery is Free)
The following scenarios may incur additional charges. These are not shipping fees but are for special services or scenarios, and we will confirm the exact amount with you in advance:
Delivery to Remote Areas:
For areas more than 50 miles from the nearest local carrier hub, additional transport costs may apply.
Delivery Requiring Stair Access:
If there is no lift and the goods need to be delivered to floors above the ground floor, extra labour costs may be incurred.
Special Delivery Needs:
For deliveries to locations with restricted entryways, height restrictions (e.g., vehicle height limits below 3.3m), or deliveries to malls or construction sites, additional coordination costs will apply.
Truck-Inaccessible Addresses:
For addresses with narrow streets or no temporary parking, requiring small vehicle transfers, additional costs may apply.
5. Customs Duties & Taxes
Our product prices include all UK customs duties and import taxes, and free shipping applies throughout. You will not need to pay any additional fees for customs clearance or transportation upon delivery.
6. Order Tracking

Notice on Logistics Update Delays
Please note that logistics information may experience slight delays. Tracking details usually become available after the carrier picks up the shipment and delivers it to the warehouse. If there are no updates temporarily, please contact customer service for the latest details.
7. Important Reminders
Custom-Made Furniture:
Most of our furniture is custom-made. Once production has started, modifications or cancellations may not be possible. Please confirm all order details carefully, as no refunds for shipping fees will be provided (shipping is free).

At Maoters, we take pride in the quality and craftsmanship of our furniture. This Warranty Policy outlines the coverage for defects in materials and workmanship in our products and the rights you have during the warranty period.
We provide all products with a 12-month Limited (based on the logistics receipt date).
This warranty covers issues caused by defects in materials or workmanship under normal household use, such as:
Cracking wood (not caused by a dry environment)
Broken or severely corroded metal parts
Structural looseness (not due to improper assembly)
Peeling or bubbling finish over large areas
Functional failure of mechanical components (e.g., drawer slides, hinges)
If you believe your product has a defect covered by this warranty, follow these steps:
Contact Us:
Please email us at support@maoters.co.uk with your order number and a detailed description of the issue.
Provide Evidence:
Please provide clear photos and/or videos showing the defective part of the product. This helps us assess the problem and find the right solution.
Evaluation and Solution:
Our customer service team will evaluate your case and propose a solution within 3-5 business days after receiving the necessary evidence. We may request additional information if required.
Solution:
Depending on the defect’s nature, we will offer one of the following solutions:
Replacement Parts: We’ll send you the replacement parts (e.g., new tabletop, drawer slides) free of charge.
Full Replacement: If the defect is severe and cannot be fixed with parts, we will replace the entire product.
Partial Refund/Compensation: If none of the above solutions are feasible, we may offer a partial refund or compensation for repairs.
This warranty does not cover:
Normal Wear:
Scuffs, scratches, or fading caused by regular use.
Misuse, Abuse, or Neglect:
Damage caused by improper assembly, overloading, failure to follow care instructions, or exposure to extreme conditions (e.g., moisture, direct sunlight).
Accidents or Force Majeure:
Damage due to traffic accidents, fires, floods, etc.

Any damage incurred during transportation should be reported in accordance with our Returns and Exchanges Policy. It is not covered by this warranty.
Since we ship from overseas warehouses, warranty service will proceed as follows:
Replacement Parts:
We will send the required replacement parts to you, free of charge, from our overseas warehouse. You may need to perform the replacement yourself (we will provide instructions) or hire a local technician (at your own expense).
Whole Unit Replacement:
For full unit replacements, we will cover the one-way shipping costs for the new product from overseas to your UK address.
Returning Defective Items:
In most cases, large furniture items do not need to be returned. We may ask you to dispose of the defective item or provide proof of destruction (e.g., video showing the item being cut or disposed of) to avoid high international return shipping costs. For small items, we may request their return for inspection.
This warranty is additional to and does not affect your statutory rights under UK law.
Under the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, goods you purchase must be as described, of satisfactory quality, and fit for purpose. Statutory rights typically last for six years (in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland). However, this does not mean that goods must last six years without failure, but they must last a reasonable amount of time based on their nature.
