Shipping + Returns

Shipping

At SOBU, we've been delivering thoughtfully designed furniture to homes across the country for over a decade. We know that a great furniture experience doesn't end at checkout, so we've made our delivery process as smooth and straightforward as possible.

We ship throughout the 48 contiguous United States. For deliveries to Alaska, Hawaii, or international destinations, please contact us for a custom quote.

Delivery Options

We offer two delivery services, depending on your order and the items you've selected.

Standard Delivery

Available on eligible furniture, Standard Delivery includes shipping via a parcel carrier (such as UPS) or a scheduled threshold delivery service, depending on the item.

Standard Delivery does not include unpacking, assembly, or placement in your room of choice.

Premium In-Home Delivery & Assembly

Our most convenient delivery service includes:

  • A scheduled delivery appointment
  • Delivery to the room of your choice
  • Professional assembly, when required
  • Removal of all packaging materials

Premium In-Home Delivery & Assembly is complimentary on orders of $2,500 or more.

For orders below $2,500, delivery rates vary by order subtotal and location, as outlined below.

Delivery Timing

In-stock furniture typically arrives within 2–4 weeks. Made-to-order items have longer lead times, with estimated delivery dates noted on individual product pages.

Once your order is on its way, we'll share tracking information or delivery scheduling details, depending on the carrier and service.

If Something Arrives Damaged

We take great care in preparing and shipping every order. In the unlikely event that something arrives damaged or incorrect, please contact us as soon as possible at info@sobusobu.com.

Include photos of the item and its packaging so we can quickly assess the issue and make things right. Please keep the original packaging until the issue has been resolved.

Please report any visible damage, defects, or shipping issues within 14 days of delivery whenever possible. Prompt reporting helps us resolve issues quickly with our delivery partners. This reporting timeframe does not limit your rights under applicable law.

WARRANTY

SOBU warrants that all products will be free from manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of delivery under normal residential use.

Because many of our pieces are made from solid wood and other natural materials, natural variations in grain, color, and texture are to be expected and are not considered defects. Wood may expand, contract, or develop small splits due to changes in humidity and temperature, which is a normal characteristic of solid wood furniture.

This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, damage caused by improper care, misuse, accidents, exposure to extreme environmental conditions, or any unauthorized modifications or repairs.
