Our delivery and warehouse teams take extra care with items, however if you believe your item has been damaged in transit, please pop into store where you purchased the item to discuss with a manager.

We sell a range of new beds and mattresses, from single to super king size. Bed bases and mattresses can be bought separately or as a set. We can also custom order beds including choices of colour and storage. Please visit your local store our range.

What is the best thing to do if I wish to donate furniture?

If you have furniture to donate, call to speak to one of our team who will then arrange a collection date with you. Alternatively, if you know that you can fit the item(s) in your vehicle you are more than welcome to bring it to us.  Items must be in clean and saleable condition, if you are unsure please check out our Reuse Guidelines. Soft furnishings must have a fire safety label and electrical items must be in working order with a CE label.
