To arrange pickup, kindly contact our head office at 03 5721 6058 before your visit, allowing us to prepare your items accordingly.
Delivery Schedule:
Deliveries are typically scheduled between 6:00 am and 8:00 pm on weekdays, with occasional weekend deliveries. However these hours are subject to change. Our courier will contact you the evening before your scheduled delivery via call or text to confirm the delivery timeframe and ensure someone will be available at the delivery location.
Our delivery time estimates are provided by our experienced team based on current conditions and planning. While we strive to offer accurate delivery windows, unforeseen circumstances such as traffic delays or issues at delivery locations can occasionally impact our schedule. We understand the value of your time and are committed to providing the most accurate delivery estimates possible.
Delivery Date:
The specific delivery date is determined by your delivery zone, and we will contact you within 48 hours of your purchase to provide this information. If the date is inconvenient, please contact McPhail's Furniture to request a more suitable date, and we will make every effort to accommodate your needs.
Delivery Changes:
Delivery dates may be subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances. In such cases, we will notify you of the new delivery date via SMS, email, or phone communication.
Delivery Timeline:
Online purchases are delivered within 14 business days from the order date (for in stock items), some may take longer. You will receive confirmation of the exact delivery date via SMS, phone call, or email. Deliveries to postcodes outside of our regular delivery routes may take longer then expected.
Delivery Location:
Goods will be delivered solely to the front door of the nominated address. For apartment or unit block deliveries, items will be delivered only to the ground floor foyer. The driver may provide additional assistance based on accessibility and safety considerations.
Assistance with Bulkier Items:
Our deliveries are one-man deliveries, and you may need to assist the driver with lifting bulkier items, such as lounge suites, as necessary.
Recipient Presence:
It is essential that someone is present at the delivery address to receive the order, as our couriers provide a door-to-door delivery service. In the event that you are not home on the scheduled delivery day, your items will be left unattended, and we will send you photo proof of delivery. If you cannot be available to accept the delivery, please contact us to arrange a safe location for your goods.
PO Box Deliveries:
Please note that we are unable to deliver to PO boxes. Kindly provide a physical address for delivery when placing your order.

For deliveries outside the specified zone area (1,000 kilometres of Wangaratta, Victoria), please contact our store to inquire about availability for certain online items in interstate metropolitan areas.
