Damages and issues
At Village we take great care to ensure that your orders are packed and shipped safely to your chosen destination. However, due to the nature of shipping, we cannot guarantee that your order will arrive in perfect condition. Local & Interstate Deliveries are completed by third party freight companies. We are not responsible for any damages incurred during transit. While we take every precaution to package your furniture securely and protect it from damage, we cannot be held liable for any damages that occur during transit.
- Any damages that occur during shipping must be reported to us within 24 hours of receipt of your Product. We can then assist and support you with your logement of a claim with the third party freight provider. We will do our best in providing any documentation necessary to support your claim.
- For all orders, excluding textiles and fashion we use Removalists as they are more reliable and suited to deliver large heavy items. You also have the option to choose a Courier such as TNT, StarTrack or Aramex. As these use conveyor belt sorting facilities there is a higher risk of damage to occur. Â
- If a claim is approved by the shipping carrier, we will either repair or replace the damaged item, depending on the severity of the damage and the availability of replacement pieces or parts and the outcome of the claim.
- If a replacement item is required, we will make every effort to get the replacement to you as quickly as possible. However, please be aware that replacement items may take several weeks/months to arrive.
By placing an order with us, you acknowledge and agree to these terms and conditions regarding our delivery policy. While we strive to provide you with the best possible customer service and support, we cannot be held responsible for damages that occur during shipping. If you have any questions or concerns regarding our delivery policy, please do not hesitate to contact us for further information.
