Delivery Charges, Delivery Details, Refunds, Returns and Exchanges.
Monday 31st May
Please be aware that Simplyrugs.net will be closed on Bank Holiday Monday. All orders taken after 2pm Friday, over that weekend and on the Bank Holiday Monday will be processed and dispatched on our return on the Tuesday. Thank you for your patience.
Delivery of General Orders :
Any orders received Monday to Thursday up to 1:00 pm , (and once payment is confirmed,) will be processed and placed on next day dispatch with professional Door to Door Couriers. On occasion the courier may miss an overnight delivery between their own hubs - when this occurs, your order may arrive a day later.
Orders received after Thursday 1:00pm, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays will be processed on the following Monday (Not including bank holidays) and placed on next day despatch with our courier service.
Orders for Washable Rugs and certain wool rugs will be fulfilled within five working days (not including bank holidays). This is due to the fact that all washable rugs are hand finished to order, hence the very slight delay.
Please ensure that you put a correct phone number on your order. This is for the couriers use only, should they have problems finding your address. Please Note : For your own privacy, we shall not use your phone number or any information given, for any purpose, other than delivery of this order, or payment query.
Please ensure that you put your full delivery address on the order form - part addresses will result in problems during delivery. If you have any further delivery instructions or directions (If the property is hard to find for instance) - please put these in the special instructions section on the order form.
Unfortunately we are not currently able to offer the option of delivery to an alternative address other than the payment card address. This is a further step in Simplyrugs efforts to reduce fraudulent use of credit cards. Should you wish to have your rug delivered to another address, you must ring simplyrugs first on 01924 460638 and discuss it with one of our sales staff prior to making the order.

We will then contact you with a delivery charge for this item. Please note that items purchased in this way must be paid for by Paypal, as this allows us to add on the delivery charge to your order. This cannot be added via the website prior to order. On receipt of your order, we will send a paypal payment request for the correct amount. On payment of this, your order will be processed.
NEXT DAY DESPATCH
All rug orders (unless otherwise specified or agreed) are despatched the next day from Simply Rugs on a delivery service using door to door couriers. In recent weeks, due to the seasonal heavy parcel traffic, we have noted that sometimes next day delivery does not occur with deliveries being between 1 to 3 days. Due to this situation please be aware that we cannot guarantee next day delivery although most orders will arrive the next day. If you do not receive your order within seven working days, please contact me on lynne@simplyrugs.net and we will chase your order for you, supplying you with a tracking number and contacting the courier on your behalf until your item has been delivered.
All orders are insured, and should your order, for an unforeseeable reason, not be received and be classed as missing by the courier (usually within 10 working days) a new one will be dispatched at no extra cost to the customer.
Monday to Friday Daytime Deliveries - Order value LESS THAN £49:
To keep things as simple as we can, delivery is based on a single price of £12 per rug with an additional reduced charge of £4 per extra rug included in the same order. Siimply choose the rug/s you wish to purchase and the delivery charge, which is additional, will be applied at check out and can clearly be identified. The First rug £12 and additional rugs £4 delivery fee is applicable to all rugs on this site, whatever their size or weight.
If your order is only marginally less than £49.00, then why not check out our clearance range of rugs which are massively reduced in price, and add one of these to your order using your reduced additional rug delivery charge - and bag a complete bargain. A good alternative is either an entrance mat or a childs room rug.
Is VAT included?
Yes, VAT is included in the cost of your rug. We keep delivery charges as a separate charge (if applicable) so that you can see the true cost of your rug. (See Delivery Charges and exceptions below)
Even with our delivery charge on top, we are consistantly cheaper than other suppliers who indicate that they are delivering 'for free'.
Bulk Purchases
If you wish to order a large number of rugs, (10 or more) then a discount on the rugs may be available depending on the type and quantity of rugs you wish to order. Please contact us directly at lynne@simplyrugs.net
Payment by visa, master card, maestro, switch, paypal etc., is the fastest route to a quick delivery. We do accept cheques, but we will not dispatch an item until the cheque has cleared our bank, so this will of course incurr a delay in receiving your item.
The website is usually up to date and clearly shows when an item is out of stock, however, we will inform you by e.mail within 1 working days if your rug is out of stock, or if there is a problem, and you can choose whether or not to proceed with your order. In nearly every case we will give you an informed option of either an alternative item, a waiting period or a part/full refund if required.
Deliveries are made using professional couriers in secure packaging and all deliveries will require a signature for security purposes.
Signatures are only accepted from the householder or designated neighbour. We will not accept signatures from people outside the house, i.e. fixing a car or standing outside the gate!!! Our couriers are within their rights to refuse to deliver an item if they feel suspicious of circumstances.
If you would like your rug leaving in a secure place without requiring a signature, we shall need full details on the order, however, please be aware that Simply Rugs cannot be held responsible for items that go missing if you choose this option. Your item will not be insured and we cannot replace a missing or damaged item.
On the day of delivery, if there is no one in at your designated delivery address to accept the order, then the courier will leave a card with clear instructions how to contact them for another delivery spot - they will then take the rug back to the local depot.
It will be possible for you to arrange pick up at the depot yourself, if you so choose. You will require up to date ID, the delivery card itself, and you will need to arrange the collection direct with the depot.
Please note if our couriers are not contacted by the end of Day Five, the rug will be returned to Simplyrugs and you will be charged with the return delivery cost.
If you expect to be away on business or on holiday during this period, please advise us when it will be possible to deliver your order and we can delay delivery.

Once we have confirmed that it is possible to swap the items, you will need to send the rug back to us under your own carriage, and on receipt,we will then process the replacement rug, confirming the additional cost if necessary. If your replacement item is less than £65.00 then the delivery charge will apply.

If you feel that we have sent out the wrong item, be it size or colour, or design, please contact us in the first instance. We will require an image of the incorrect item or measurements to be sent to us, and if we feel that the item has been wrongly sent out, then we will ask you to return the item.

It is important that you retain proof of the delivery along with the charge, and supply us a copy of the receipt for later use. Please ensure that you use a reputable courier and that the delivery is a system where the item has to be signed for.
On occasion we may arrange the collection ourselves, but this is only with prior consideration.
However, if we feel that once we have received the items back, that the rugs were infact correct, then we reserve the right to charge the customer for that collection, and only refund the cost of the items less the delivery charge.
