Due to the size and weight of certain products, it may be delivered by a freight company, which delivers products differently than UPS. Delivery by the freight company may be “curbside” service, which means that the shipping company will only be responsible for removing the item(s) from the back of the truck. The customer may need to provide assistance or a dolly for the truck driver in unloading the package(s), so please have plenty of help that is capable of heavy lifting. Additional delivery fees such as Ferry Fees/Gated Community Fees that are required to access your address will be billed to the consumer when incurred. Should you need to use additional shipping company services, such as lift gate or inside delivery, you will be responsible for all additional charges incurred. For a quote on additional services or information about how your particular items will be shipped please contact customer service at (866) 210-6926.

Backorder Policy & Discontinued Policy:
We receive intermittent backorder and discontinued reports from most, but not all of our manufacturers, and there is a small possibility that some items listed on our site may have been back ordered or discontinued by the manufacturer before we are informed of their status. When we are notified bye the manufacturer that a product is on backorder, becomes on backorder, or is discontinued by the manufacturer after the order has been placed, you will be sent an email with the current backorder or discontinued status of your order and you will have the option cancel or receive the item(s) at the time of the estimated new delivery date. If you have ordered an item that was marked “backordered item” at the time of your order cancellation is subject to a 5% cancellation fee.
The estimated “availability” date, if shown, is not a firm commitment by us to ship your product on or before that date. The date may change according to the manufacturer&priem;s ability to fulfill the order. All orders, including backorders must be paid for at the time of ordering. Paid orders have first priority of being shipped out once the backordered item is back in stock. For orders placed with multiple pieces, all items from the same manufacturer as the backordered item will be held until everything is available for shipment. Items not from the same manufacturer as the backordered item will ship as originally expected. You can request that the available items be shipped out now and the backordered item when it becomes available however, there will be additional shipping charges.
If your product is found to be discontinued you will have the choice of a full refund of the discontinued item cost plus any shipping fees or taxes that were originally charged or you may choose another similar item (any increase in price will be charged, any decrease in price will be refunded).
Cancellations:
Simmons Mattress Company must limit customer changes and cancellations. Simmons mattresses are "made to order" and the Simmons company charges $150 for any product cancelled or changed after their production has begun. Production normally begins 48 to 72 hours after receipt of order, but may occur sooner. Regardless of the number of hours after the order, if you cancel or change your order after Simmons declares they have begun production this fee will be charged to you.
Cancellation Policy:
If you cancel your order prior to processing you will incur no cancellation fee, however, any order that is canceled after processing will incur a 5% processing fee.
Q: What if I cancel my order after it has been shipped?
A: Unfortunately we cannot recall the item from the shipping company once it is in their hands. The shipping company charges fees for delivering and returning packages whether they are refused at delivery or not, which will be passed on to you the end consumer. Cancellation of an order after it has been shipped results in a minimum 10% restocking fee plus shipping expenses both ways. You are responsible for the value of the package until it arrives back at our warehouse. You will receive your credit once the product has been received in our warehouse in resalable condition (in our sole and absolute discretion).
Incomplete Orders:
If your order is not complete be sure to check your packing slip or your email in-box, as sometimes items are shipped separately or placed on backorder and you will be notified regarding the status of completing your order. Please contact us immediately upon receipt of your package if you feel your order is incomplete and there is not adequate explanation on the packing slip or if you do not receive an email from us within 2 business days of your order. If you have questions please call us at (866) 210-6926. Claims of missing products must be made within 5 days of receiving your order.
Q: What if I cancel my order while it´s on backorder?
