We may need to collect personal information from you for specific purposes, such as providing requested information. This information may include your name, address, telephone number, fax number, and/or email address. Additionally, we may collect information generated through the purchase of a product or service, such as your payment method.

How do we protect information we collect?

We offer secure web pages to collect certain kinds of user information and we store certain kinds of data in encrypted form. We maintain strict physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized or inappropriate access. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures implemented by our website reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved. Restaurant Furniture Supply servers use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an encryption technology that works with any modern web browser, so that only Restaurant Furniture Supply can read a customer's personal information.

We may share the personal information you provide with other companies we have hired to provide services for us. These companies - our vendors - are contractually bound to use personal information we share with them only to perform the services we have hired them to provide. We do not share, sell, or lease personal information about you to any third-parties for their marketing use. We will release information about you if you direct us to do so, if we are required by law to do so, or in other legally limited circumstances (for example, to protect your account from fraud).

Shipping Policy

At Restaurant Furniture Supply we provide the highest quality furniture at the lowest online prices. All our items are brand new and come in original manufacturer-sealed boxes. Please review our policies below and contact us for further information.

Delivery Time

Unless otherwise stated, all our items ship out in 14-21 business days. Business days are Monday through Friday, not including weekends or public holidays. Custom orders may require a longer lead time of 8 -10 weeks, depending on the specific items. If time is a concern please contact us for an approximate shipping date. In some cases we may be able to also assist you with "time critical" orders. This depends on the order size, product and cost. We ship nationwide using independent freight carriers. Seller will not be liable for any damage, loss, fault, or expenses arising out of delays in shipment or other non-performance of this Policy, including any claim of consequential or incidental damages.

Shipping Cost

Shipping is not our business! We get the best rates in the industry and pass them over to you, the client, with no hidden costs. Our prices are determined (not estimated) so you can be sure of what the total cost is. Since every computerized system has errors, Restaurant Furniture Supply reserves the right to change the shipping charges even after the order was made. In that case the customer will have to approve the new shipping charge before the order had been finalized. In some instances it may not be possible to receive a shipping quote on the site. Depends on the product, size of the order and destination zip code - a customer service representative will contact you with the best possible freight rate.

Orders shipped via a trucking company are delivered "tailgate" when sent to a business with dock-height facilities. If there is no dock on the premises, the truck will park in a designated loading zone nearby. The customer is responsible for unloading the freight from the truck within 30 minutes of its arrival.

Lift gate service, Limited Access Delivery, Residential Delivery, "inside delivery" are available in most cases. Please remember to ask for it when placing an order since these services have to be scheduled with the freight company. Extra charges WILL apply for these services.

We reserve the right to bill you for shipping charges on refused shipments and any extra shipping charges as mentioned in our shipping appendix.

Shipping Damages and Freight Claims

When a carrier (UPS or common) takes possession of a shipment, they sign and acknowledge receiving the product in good order. Once they take possession, we are no longer responsible for the condition of the product(s) at time of delivery. All common carrier deliveries require a signature. It is the customer's responsibility to inspect the shipment prior to acceptance. If there is visible damage (i.e. Forklift punctures; shrink wrap is broken, torn, and cases are missing) then the customer must note the damage on the bill of lading. If you have no time to inspect the boxes upon delivery, please note the following on the Bill of Lading: "Boxes are subject to inspection at time of delivery. Customer will notify the carrier of pending damage within 24 hours." This gives you time to look over the product, yet allows the carrier to know that possible damage may have occurred before you took possession of it. It is the responsibility of the customer to fill a damage claim with the carrier, Restaurant Furniture Supply can help you file the claim on your behalf. The carrier will reimburse the customer for their loss.

Shipping Appendix

The definition of freight accessories or fees you may encounter are as follows:

  • Lift Gate: The truck will be equipped with a platform to bring your delivery to the ground. This is recommended if you have no commercial dock or forklift.
  • Inside Delivery: The freight company will bring your order to the threshold of your establishment. They will not traverse stairs. In case of stairs they will bring your order to your flight of stairs and no further.
  • Limited Access Delivery: Limited access in this case refers to places with traditionally limited access- Schools, hospitals, churches, and other institutions of this sort may apply. If you are unsure if your delivery will incur this fee, please ask.
  • Residential Delivery: If you are a residential customer or living in a residential neighborhood, this charge is required for delivery. This charge may also be levied if your business is primarily in a residential neighborhood, or surrounded by houses.
  • White Glove Service: This service is when the delivery company will not only bring all items into your store, but will unpack and assemble the items if required. This service is never offered unless specifically requested and paid for in advance. This service CANNOT be added to orders already in transit.
  • Detention Fee: If the driver is detained past your allotted time for delivery functions you may be liable for a detention fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
  • Redelivery Fee: If an order must be redelivered for any reason you may be liable for a delivery fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
  • Re consignment Fee: If you are changing the delivery address of an order that is already in transit, you may be liable for a re consignment fee. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
  • Storage Fee: If your order must be stored at any point during the delivery outside of the expected delivery schedule you may be liable for storage fees. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee, if required.
  • Paras Fail: For international orders, if your custom documents are not in proper order you may be charged this fee. It arises when customs documents are incorrect, not in proper order, or missing entirely. In agreeing to this policy you agree to this fee if required.
  • Appointment Fee: The making of a specific drop off appointment may cost extra, depending on the shipping company. Should an appointment be placed with the shipping company they will usually charge this fee.

As mentioned elsewhere in this policy, it is the customer’s responsibility to inform us of any and all required shipping accessories at time of purchase. The customer understands that shipping accessories and fees are pre-approved if required at any point during the shipping process.

Shipments into Canada

While we ship to Canada daily, our shipping rates cover only the freight charges. These rates do not include broker fees or Canadian taxes. It is your responsibility to provide us with a customs broker before shipping. We will communicate directly with your broker to supply all the necessary paperwork for customs clearance.

Returns and Cancellations

Cancellation of order is possible prior to the production or packaging of the items ordered. Custom made products (using custom upholstery materials, special stains or finishes, size or shapes for example booths) cannot be returned or canceled at any point because they were manufactured based on your specifications. You may be able to cancel or return items that are "stock items" within 14 days of delivery.

Returning or canceling an order with "stock-items", involves a restocking fee of 30%. This also applies on orders which were packaged but were canceled prior to shipping. In case of a return, you will forfeit all shipping expenses paid by you. All items must be returned in the original manufacturer's boxes and will be inspected at time of arrival. You will also be responsible for packing the items, and all costs of doing so. Therefore, it is your responsibility to keep the original manufacturer's boxes and packing materials. In case of damage to the returned product, you will be charged the item's full price as appears on the original order. Shipping back the furniture is the responsibility of the customer and on his expense. Even if we mistakenly ship the wrong product, you are still responsible for packing the items on pallets for the return shipment. In these cases we will pick up the furniture.

Color/Texture Disclaimer: Stains may appear different on certain browsers and colors may not be accurate and textures may not be properly visualized as a result of photographic, Internet & computer inaccuracies and many other factors beyond our control. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that the product colors, textures and stains & grains you see displayed on this site are perfectly accurate. Furthermore, in natural wood products there is no offer of warranty when it comes to wood-grain or any effect it may cause in terms of pattern, texture, or color even with the receipt of a sample. We, unfortunately, have no control over natural wood grain.

WHEN YOU PLACE AN ORDER, you accept the limitations inherent in not directly viewing samples. If you have not received samples, your approval of the order constitutes a waiver of any claims due to dissatisfaction with the product colors, textures, stains, and grains. If you would like to see firsthand materials (fabrics, vinyl, wood finishes, and metal swatches), please contact us, and we will be happy to provide samples. For more information, please contact customer service.

Re-Ordering: We reserve the right to update our color panels periodically. If you are placing a re-order, it is the customer's responsibility to re-confirm the color by ordering a swatch. We will not be held liable for any color variations. Upon request, the swatch will be provided free of charge.

Miscellaneous

Purchase Orders

Purchase orders will be accepted on case by case basis. Restaurant Furniture Supply reserves the right to decline offers based on her sole judgment. All P.O. must be made in writing using company letterhead.

Samples

We understand that the fabrics and colors displayed on your monitor may differ from their appearance in real life. To ensure a more accurate evaluation, we offer samples. If you require wood swatches or fabric samples, please contact us. These samples will be sent via UPS ground service and should arrive within 2-3 business days.

Booth Orders, Sizes and Shapes

We take great pride in our custom work and strive to ensure that your order is as accurate as possible. However, because all custom items are handmade, we reserve the right to allow for a margin of error of up to 3% in any dimension. Please take this potential 3% variance into account when placing your order.

We reserve the right to manufacture custom booths, shapes, and lengths to accommodate shipping restrictions. This may involve splitting linear (wall benches, singles, doubles) and nonlinear shapes (rounded booths, U-shaped booths, etc.) into multiple pieces when necessary. Generally, linear segments of 72” and longer or nonlinear segments over 48” will be produced in sections. For instance, if you order a 150” booth, it will not be delivered as a single piece. Instead, it may be divided into two 75” pieces or three 50” pieces, depending on shipping requirements. Similarly, a U-shaped booth measuring 48" x 90" x 48" will likely be split into two segments of 48" x 45".

Product Warranty

In the event of a warranty claim, we reserve the right to repair the product at our expense, offer a partial or full refund, or provide a replacement. All warranties, whether express or implied, cover only normal usage.

Solid Wood Tables Disclaimer

Solid wood tables, such as butcher block, plank, and live edge, inherently "move" over time in areas with insufficient or excessive humidity.
