Shipping, Refund and Returns Policy

Retail Product Shipping and Returns Policy

Shipping Policy

A street address for delivery must be provided at the time of placing the order, we are unable to deliver to a PO Box.

Should your delivery address change, it is your responsibility to let us know prior to dispatch by emailing studio@journey-home.com.au. If your order is sent to the incorrect address and returned to Journey Home Interiors, a redelivery fee may apply.

All shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer. Journey Home Interiors reserves the right to request extra freight costs for remote/rural areas or large/heavy orders.

LOCAL SHIPPING

If part of your order can be satisfied due to stock availability, we will contact you to arrange delivery, on the basis that you are prepared to pay the additional shipping costs for the split delivery. Otherwise, we will hold the goods until all items are received so that delivery of the full order occurs.

We calculate shipping within Australia using the size, weight and fragility of your item/s. This helps us ensure that your purchase arrives intact and undamaged.

Returns Policy

We do not offer returns on custom orders, including furniture (for instance, furniture upholstered in a fabric of your choosing) or soft furnishings (cushions, curtains, blinds, etc.) that have been custom designed, measured to fit, or designed with a specific fabrication, as requested.

For non-custom orders, we have a strict 30-day returns policy, whereby you will receive a credit to the value of your returned item/s, minus shipping costs.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused, in original packaging, in the same condition that you received it, and without any damage in transit. If the item returns to us broken or damaged, we cannot issue a credit.

Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Any custom orders, including furniture (for instance, furniture upholstered in a fabric of your choosing) or soft furnishings (cushions, curtains, blinds, etc.) that have been custom designed, measured to fit, or designed with a specific fabrication, as requested.

Refunds

We only offer a refund if your item/s arrived damaged on delivery, or appear faulty. If this occurs, don’t worry, we’re here to help. Once your item/s is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.

There are certain situations where a refund will not be granted:

Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error.
