Terms & Conditions

Read about our terms and conditions

When placing your order, we will take you through your selected products and services in detail, giving you all the information required, including operation, maintenance and care information. Details of all items, including fabrics, colours, size and fit will be thoroughly checked, verified and you will be asked for a signature to confirm the order. In giving this confirmation you agree that the order and its contents are correct, and you are happy with your product. 30% cancellation or amendment fee applies.

Although we understand the difficulties in checking access routes (door sizes, corridors, etc.) for installation of furniture, it is always your final responsibility to ensure that your furniture will fit into your home. We cannot be held responsible for furniture which has to be returned because it doesn’t fit. Our standard cancellation fees would apply in this situation.

If your order is placed in-store, once completed, your order forms part of a legally binding contract, which cannot be cancelled without charge which is 30% of the order value.

Calls maybe recorded for training and monitoring purposes, these are deleted after 90 days.

All lead times are approximate, slight delays are not a reason for refund/compensation. Lead times are extended during the Christmas period, Bank holidays, factory shutdowns and seasonal variances.

We only deliver to Mainland UK addresses. If you require delivery outside of the UK we can deliver to the nearest port/UK mainland postcode, after this point it is the customer’s sole responsibility to ship the furniture to the destination.
As a gesture of goodwill, Shackleton’s offers all in- store customers a 48 Hour Cooling Off period from the date your order is placed (excluding 48-hour delivery service products) during which time an order may be cancelled or amended without a cancellation fee, and any monies paid will be fully refunded.

All products are manufactured to order, cancellation or amendment after 48 hours will incur a charge, detailed below in the “Cancellation” section, to cover costs incurred by Shackleton’s for processing, manufacturing and/or transportation.

On our Express Delivery products there is a cancellation fee of £200 or 10% whichever is greater for any Express Delivery product that is ready to be dispatched, but not yet in a customer’s home. After a period of time, we reserve the right to amend the cancellation charge depending on circumstances.
All prices shown are in sterling. Due to circumstances beyond our control, prices may have to be altered up or down, including any alterations to the rate of Value Added Tax.
If you are chronically ill or disabled and the product(s) you are ordering are denoted ‘VAT free’, you may be eligible for the VAT free price. To qualify you MUST complete and sign the Eligibility Declaration supplied with the order form. Please note there are penalties for making false declarations; if you are in any doubt as to whether you are eligible to receive goods or services zero-rated for VAT, you should consult H. M. Revenue & Customs Notice 701/7 VAT Reliefs for Disabled People or contact the VAT National Advice Service on 0300 123 1073 before signing the declaration. VAT Free available on Riser Recliners and Adjustable Beds only.
Payment methods include cash (in-store only and Home Visit), cheque, debit or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or Switch/Maestro). Payments can also be made electronically by bank transfer; details will be provided on request. Payment in full is required at the point of sale for all Express Delivery items, 7–14-day delivery service products, and orders of bespoke furniture ranges and clearance items.

For all other products, a minimum deposit of 30% or £200 (whichever is the greater), is required. The full balance will be payable once a delivery date has been agreed & prior to delivery of the goods. Where this is not possible, we will contact you to take payment of your outstanding balance.

On the day of delivery, it is your responsibility to ensure that the delivery team can gain easy access to the room that the furniture is going into and that the area you want the furniture placed in is cleared. We are unable to give you a specific time slot for your delivery. We will however advise you as to whether it is morning or afternoon delivery. On a 2-man delivery service, the delivery team will unpack your furniture, install it in the room of your choice and, if you wish, will remove all packing materials from your home and recycle wherever possible.

To make sure you are completely satisfied with your items, the delivery team will ask you to sign for receipt of your furniture after it has been installed.
Any orders for Northern Ireland, Isles of Scotland and Isle of Wight fall outside of the express delivery period. Please ask in store for details.
Items for disposal must be dismantled prior to us delivering your new furniture, we are unable to dismantle goods including beds and sofas. Upon delivery of your new Shackleton’s furniture, any old furniture, on a like-for-like basis, can be taken away and, where possible, will be recycled for a disposal charge which can be given on request
The following applies only to orders placed online, by post, Home Visit or over the telephone, and for items not purchased in our retail store. Orders considered to fall under the Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges (ICAC regulations), i.e., distance sales contracts, are subject to a 14 day return or exchange right. Where the 14th day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holiday the final day shall be deemed to be the following working day. To exercise your right to cancel, please call 01924 440 600.

Without having the benefit of visiting one of our stores prior to purchase, this period is to give the customer the opportunity to inspect the goods and correct any wrong choices that may have been made. As such, it is not a period where they can make normal use of that furniture and impact its condition. Until returned, the furniture is under the customer’s ownership, and it will be their responsibility to maintain and protect it, keeping it in “as new” condition.

All labels including fire label must remain intact. Failure to return goods in perfect condition may result in additional charges. You have the legal right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods. All items returned must be in a perfect condition and there will be a collection fee of £100 to return any goods to us. Normal usage is usage of the furniture in line with what would be expected to try in-store. We reserve the right to deduct any amounts if the furniture returned is not in new condition.

We recommend you look after your furniture according to the care instructions provided. To ensure safe use when operating a recliner chair, we advise that you allow for a clearance of 16.5”-18″ between the back of the chair and a wall.
Since the furniture is manufactured to order, cancellation or amendment more than 48 hours after an in-store order is placed will incur a cancellation charge of 30% of order value (or £200 if greater) for standard furniture ranges and 100% of order value for bespoke furniture ranges. Cancellation/returns/or replacements of in-store orders after delivery will only be accepted on the grounds of product fault or damage arising pre-delivery.

Where orders of standard furniture ranges are cancelled under distance sales regulations, the cancellation charge will not be applied.

Please refer to the “Distance Selling” section for further information around processes and costs associated or call 01924 440 600 for cancellations.

In the event you need to cancel a purchase pre-delivery due to the death of a customer, we will only charge a 30% cancellation fee of the order value that is held on account and can be used on a future purchase within 12 months. Alternatively, a loss of 30% of the deposit will be charged.
On occasions our customers may require us to store their furniture for a short time following manufacture. We can in exceptional circumstances arrange this for you, a charge is payable for this service. Full payment for all goods must be paid on completion of manufacture in line with our standard terms and conditions.

In order to place an order on hold full payment must be made. You must allow a minimum of 1-2 weeks for furniture to be dispatched from hold and delivered.
  • Orders of store clearance items and showroom ex-display stock must be fully paid for at the point of order/ purchase
  • Clearance and Express Delivery products are all whilst stocks last
Should you receive goods that are faulty or damaged you are entitled to full refund or replacement up to 30 days from date of receipt. Please note that Shackleton’s reserves the right to examine the goods to confirm damage and establish fault prior to agreement to refund or replacement. On the day of delivery, you will be asked to sign to confirm receipt of goods in full.

We reserve the right to deduct the usage fee for items over 6 months old. If you wish to make a claim outside the guarantee period set out below, you can contact us to discuss options for repair or replacement of your goods or call 01924 440 600

On chequered patterns we only guarantee pattern match on fixed chairs & sofas. (Excludes all recliner & rise recliner products) All pile fabrics, including chenille are subject to a degree of pile crush. This is not a fabric or manufacturing fault this is a natural characteristic, and this will not detract from the wearing properties of the material. Other parts of our furniture ranges including foam and fabric are covered by a 1-year guarantee.

Any claims for sizing issues must be reported within 7 days from delivery. For all showroom clearance, ex display stock, clearance items, and other goods notified as such, the guarantee for these items apply to the motor only and this carries a 1-year guarantee.

Please note, your guarantee does not cover normal wear and tear. It is important to note that we often find that damage can be avoided by correct care and maintenance. Our guarantee excludes instances where damage is as a result of lack of care, insufficient daily maintenance, incorrect cleaning, change of specification by the customer or usage outside of the manufacturer’s guidelines.
