How long will it take for my items to be delivered?

Furniture items in stock are estimated to be delivered within 1 – 3 Weeks. If your item is not in stock, we will contact you to let you know when we will have it. Once you have received your online email confirmation, a member of our team will be in touch with you by email shortly thereafter (usually within 24 hours, except at weekends).

What happens if I miss the delivery of my furniture?

If you miss the confirmed delivery date and time, our delivery team will return your purchase to our warehouse. We will contact you to arrange an additional delivery date, but please note an additional delivery charge may apply.

If your order is through Fastway and you are not there when they deliver the item, it may be left in a safe location.

Can I delay the delivery of an item?

Absolutely. If the delivery is not suitable you can reschedule up to six weeks after the date of purchase. Please let us know as soon as possible and no later than 24 hours before your delivery is due. If you let us know later than this an additional delivery charge may apply as our trucks will have already been loaded with your order.

Will you assemble my furniture?

Dining tables, bed frames, bunk beds, and some wardrobes and occasional furniture will require assembly. If you wish us to assemble any item there will be a charge for this service from €20-€99 depending on the product you ordered. Please note the assembly of products needs to be booked prior to delivery and for online orders is paid separately to your online purchase. To pay for and arrange your product assembly after making your online purchase, please contact customer service at 064 6691112.

Can you remove my old furniture?

At Corcoran’s Furniture & Carpets we can arrange for the removal and disposal of tables & chairs, bed bases, mattresses, and sofas where removal has been paid for. Please contact us on 064 6691112 to arrange for your delivery.

The fees are as follows:

  • Single mattress: €15
  • Double mattress: €20
  • Mattress + base: €30
  • Table + chairs: €30
  • Suite: €60
Only a part of my order arrived. Where is the rest of it?

If some of your items are in stock and others aren’t, we will deliver in-stock items first so as not to delay. To find out when the remaining item(s) will be delivered contact your ordering store for an update.

What happens if my furniture is damaged on delivery?

Our warehouse and delivery team treat every piece of furniture as if it was their own. Unfortunately, on rare occasions an item may get damaged in transit.

In the unlikely event that your furniture arrives with visible signs of transit damage, write this on the delivery note that you are asked to sign by our delivery partners. Then contact our customer service team at 064 6691112 within three days of your order.

If any items were damaged in transit, this must be reported to us within three days of delivery of the item.

If possible, please return all items to us in the original packaging complete with all documentation that belongs to it. As an alternative, we may arrange a technician call out to fix minor damages, or we may arrange an uplift and replacement of your item for you. We will then issue a) a replacement or b) a full refund (online orders only) once we receive the item(s).

My item is faulty. What do I do?

In the unlikely event that your furniture is faulty please report to us within three days of noticing the fault by emailing us at [email protected] with your contact number, a brief description of the fault and include pictures where possible. Please note that you may be required to conduct a diagnostic via telephone to ensure the fault can’t be immediately rectified.

If the damage requires more intensive investigation, we will then either arrange for a technician to call to your home, organise a collection of the item, or if convenient you can personally return the item to your nearest store.

What if I receive an incorrect item?

On the rare occasion you receive an incorrect item in your order contact us at 064 669112 or email us at [email protected] within three days of your order. Please do not remove the item from its packaging. We will arrange for the collection of the incorrect item free of charge and replace it with the correct item as soon as possible.

What if my furniture does not fit?
When you order your furniture, it’s crucial to check that it will fit through your home’s doorways and entrances by measuring all doors and stairways as well as the chosen space as carefully as possible. While this furniture can be returned for online purchases, it does create a lot of inconvenience on both sides in arranging for a new delivery of furniture with suitable measurements.
What’s your online returns policy?

While we at Corcoran’s Furniture and Carpets are endeavoured to selling a wide range of fabulous furniture and home improvement items at exceptional prices, we understand there may be an occasion where you decide to return or exchange something you bought from us online.

With reference to the Distance Selling Regulations, if you change your mind and would like to return your order after delivery, you have a cooling off period of 14 days. You can do so for any reason – even if you simply changed your mind.

However please note you must inform us within 14 days of receiving your item of your intent to withdraw from your contract. From that date you will have an additional 14 days to return the item to us, for which you will be responsible for covering the cost. We can also arrange to collect the item from you, however please be aware this will be subject to a collection fee which will be deducted from your refund.

You must also ensure that the goods are in an “as new” condition on return and in the original, undamaged packaging. You must not have used or installed the item or we may seek to recover the costs from your refund amount.

Within 14 days of receiving the item being returned we will issue your refund.

Please note purchases completed in store have a different returns and cancellation policy.

As you are responsible for the product until it is returned to us, you must take good care of the item and use a recorded delivery service as proof of purchase.

What is your returns policy for in store purchases?

For in store items we will issue a credit note should you need to return an item. You must return your item within 14 days with proof of purchase, unopened and in its original packaging.
