Orders placed online with my shopping cart may be payed by credit card online or by credit card or personal check through the mail. Credit card phone orders are also accepted at 802-387-4416. When you place an order a 50% deposit will be charged to your credit card. The balance plus tax and/or shipping charges will be charged upon completion of your order. Upon receipt of your deposit your furniture will be scheduled for construction and you will be notified of an estimated completion date. In most cases this will be 10 to 14 weeks from receipt of your order.
There are five possible shipping methods available:
Customer Pick Up: If you would like to you can pick up your order at our shop in Putney, Vermont. Orders picked up at the shop as well as orders shipped or delivered to Vermont addresses are subject to Vermont 6% sales tax.
Delivery in our van: If you live within an hour or two of Putney, VT your furniture can be delivered by us. For larger orders this is usually the most economical shipping method. The cost for this depends on where you live. Please call or email for a delivery quote. If you pick this shipping option with a shopping cart order no shipping costs will show up on your cart.
Blanket wrapped delivery service: This is an excellent option for larger individual pieces or large multi-piece orders. With this option your furniture is blanket wrapped in my shop and delivered to your home by professional movers. There are two companies I work with who both take extremely good care of your furniture, place it exactly where you want it in your home and even will assemble furniture such as beds if necessary. One company regularly delivers in the area between Vermont and the Washington, DC/Maryland area. The other company delivers nationwide (except Alaska and Hawaii). Please call or email for a delivery quote. If you pick this shipping option with a shopping cart order no shipping costs will show up on your cart.
UPS: Some of my furniture is small enough (or disassembles) to fit into UPS size and weight restrictions. These items with their shipping costs are noted on their catalog pages and will show up on your shopping cart.
Common Carrier: Occasionally none of the above shipping options are possible (ie shipping to Hawaii) so your furniture is crated and shipped by common carrier. We personally build the shipping crates and receive substantial discounts on the trucking costs. The disadvantages of this method are that you only get "curb side" delivery, the crates are very heavy on large pieces and you will need to handle uncrating and disposal of the crating materials. We would be happy to estimate your crating and shipping cost prior to your placing an order. If you pick this shipping option with a shopping cart order no shipping costs will show up on your cart.
