Shipping Policy

Last Updated: 26 August 2026

At Markalou, we offer delivery across the United Kingdom on eligible office furniture orders placed through our website. Our goal is to provide clear and transparent shipping information so you can make an informed purchase decision.


1. Delivery Areas

We currently offer delivery to addresses throughout the United Kingdom mainland.

We deliver to:

Please note: We do not currently deliver to:

Important: Under UK advertising regulations, if we state delivery to "the UK," customers are entitled to assume this covers the whole UK, including all islands and the Scottish Highlands, unless we clearly state otherwise. This is why we specify our exact delivery areas above.

Please make sure that your delivery address is complete and accurate when placing your order, and inform us of any access restrictions (e.g., narrow staircases, limited parking, lift access) before delivery.


2. Delivery Cost

Important: Under UK law, if there is no option for free collection, the displayed price of goods must include the delivery cost. Since we offer free delivery universally within our service area, our product prices reflect the total cost.

If you are located outside our standard delivery areas, please contact us before placing an order to discuss potential delivery options and associated costs.


3. Order Processing Time

All office furniture orders are carefully prepared and processed within 1 to 2 business days (Monday to Friday, excluding UK public holidays).


4. Delivery Time

This is an estimated delivery timeframe and may vary depending on:

Once your order is confirmed, we will arrange delivery and provide you with a more specific timeframe.

Legal compliance: Under UK law, goods must be delivered without undue delay and, unless otherwise agreed, within 30 days of the day after the order was placed. Our 7–15 day estimate is well within this legal requirement.


5. Delivery Confirmation

Once your order has been processed and delivery arrangements have been made, we will contact you using the details provided with your order. This will include:

Please ensure that your telephone number and email address are correct.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery information and notifying us of any relevant access restrictions. Additional charges may apply if delivery fails due to access issues.


8. Failed Delivery and Returns of Large Items

Please ensure you are available to accept delivery on the agreed date.


9. Delivery Delays

We aim to deliver orders within the stated 7–15 day timeframe. However, delivery may occasionally take longer due to circumstances outside our reasonable control, including:

Where a significant delay occurs, we will make reasonable efforts to keep you informed.

Legal compliance: Under UK law, if we are unable to deliver within the agreed timeframe (or within 30 days, if no timeframe was agreed), we must inform you and reimburse any sums paid.


10. Delivery Problems (Damaged or Incorrect Items)

If your order arrives damaged, incorrect, or with another significant issue, please contact us as soon as possible—ideally within 48 hours of delivery.
