on redundant items being replaced with
new items. Examples as follows: n Small items: £5.00 n Larger items: £7.50 to £10.00

After initial design proposal and quotation, a schedule is submitted to the client based on the product range which would best suit their requirements. Samples can be provided to allow client consultation and approval. All sample cabinets will be invoiced at time of despatch. Providing the cabinet is returned within 30 days in good condition, a credit note will be issued. However, unless by prior agreement, if a cabinet is not returned within the 30 day period, it will be deemed sold and collection of the invoice amount will proceed.
storage
Storage charges may be incurred as a result of contract delay. Please consult the sales desk immediately should you wish to re-allocate delivery.

Please note that all prices are for delivery and installation to a single point of use. If you know there will be a problem with parking the vehicle for off-loading the furniture, or you have tight staircases/ doorways, we need to know as soon as possible. These problems could lead to surcharges being incurred (note that all Carleton Furniture Group’s storage units are pre-assembled).Please consult the Sales Department for further details.
