Returns
OfficeChairsUSA.com offers a hassle free 45 Day Return Program outlined as follows. If you receive an item that you are not happy with and did not meet your expectations please call us at 888-355-4999 or email us at info@officechairsusa.com so we can assist you in the return process. All returns must be sent to our office and showroom in Portsmouth, RI and not to the factory or distribution hub from which they were sent. Upon acceptance of your return request our staff will issue you a return authorization number that needs to be clearly affixed to the return label or carton with the exact return address location.
We reserve the right to not approve accessories or parts that may have been added as options or special order items, including special casters, replacement seat covers, table tops or other items not ordered as part of a complete unit.
Products need to be returned in new condition in the original factory packaging with fillers intact. Upon inspection we will issue you a refund less the cost of the original outbound freight that we paid to get the product to you. You are responsible for getting the product(s) back to our warehouse prepaid. If you have questions about what we may deduct for the outbound freight we can give you an estimate when you make the initial return request.
If your item arrives defective call us right away so that we can help you. Most often a defective chair can be fixed by a simple part replacement. This is much easier than doing an entire exchange. If the item cannot be made 100% perfect with a simple part we will send you a new one.
*Special order merchandise cannot be returned. Special order products are typically those that do not ship within 7 days and are configured with special fabrics and or options and include among other brands that of Lesro reception seating, which is very custom. Other non-returnable and highly customizable items include Obex privacy screens, privacy barriers, glass boards, electrical components, chair mats, ergonomic products such as keyboards and footrests, exercise equipment and others where noted on the product pages. If you have any questions about what is special order and what is not please call us at 888-355-4999. Always willing to try to help you out and we will go out of our way to accommodate all return requests as best we can.
Special order products and certain stock quick ship products that have entered into the production schedules at our factories cannot usually be cancelled even in the early phase of the cycle. Factory partners such as HAG, Hon and Humanscale are especially stringent about cancellations and changes once an item has been entered and scheduled even after a few days.
Sales on all Outlet items are final and cannot be returned unless deemed defective or special arrangements had been made prior to purchase.
Returns that exceed 6 pieces will be subject to a 25% re-stock fee as well as the freight costs. If you are buying a large lot of chairs consider a sample first to test. Large furniture items such as massage chairs, desks, height adjustable tables, files, glass boards and tables may not be returned due to the complexities of re-boxing and associated shipping costs.
Shipping Information
All OfficeChairsUSA merchandise Ships Free within the 48 contiguous states. Shipments outside of this zone can be arranged and include Alaska, Hawaii and Canada but charges will apply. Always Free Shipping is truly the case for small parcel items that travel by UPS of FedEx Ground and for the larger parcels like desks and tables that can shipped to a commercial loading dock. If you do not have a loading dock and your item is large like a desk or file, there are options to receive the product by a carrier via a lift-gate service. Lift-gate is also know as curbside delivery and is very common in the furniture industry. If there are special service charges on products like this you will have the option to select or deselect these at checkout. This varies product by product but are essentially pass through fees from the commercial truck-lines. If this condition does exist you will always see it at checkout. If you have questions please call us.
Most items are brought directly to your door or suite by UPS or Fedex Ground. The majority of our seating and accessories travel this way. Large items such as desks will arrive by truck. You would typically get a phone call from the carrier ahead of time to confirm that you will be there. LTL carriers typically deliver to ‘docks’ in commercial settings but they also will deliver ‘curb-side’. If your delivery is not a loading dock be prepared to have the driver hand it off to you either by placing it on the ground or off the back of the truck. Drivers will not bring the products inside unless special arrangements are made well ahead of time.
If your item arrives damaged please follow these protocols. If the item arrives by a small package carrier such as UPS or FedEx, accept the item and contact us with the type of damage. Most often we are able to send a replacement part to remedy the matter. If the chair is very badly damaged we would replace it. Damage is rare but it can happen.
If your item arrives by an LTL carrier and you encounter a battered carton be sure to inspect for possible damage first and call us! Do not sign off until you are certain that the product is in perfect condition. The driver will wait. We all want to avoid concealed damages so it’s always best to double check at the time of your delivery. Once you are comfortable you can then sign off.
Certain high value seating brands such as HAG that ship by UPS or FedEx ground may provide you with an option at checkout to receive your order with or without a 'signature'. If you select delivery without a signature on certain brands (this is always signified in the cart) we cannot be held responsible for merchandise that shows being delivered by the carrier but cannot be located. With the surge in e-commerce orders, certain individuals are now scooping products from doorsteps after the carriers drive away. Asking that your chair be sent with a signature required is a wise step if you live in a busy neighborhood or if you have experienced local 'porch pirates'.
Should you change the ship to destination while your product is en-route you will be charged any fees that we are charged by the carrier (Fedex, UPS or LTL). Always make sure that your ship to destination is accurate and that a point of contact is provided.
Since certain products ship RTA or 'ready to assemble' and others ship fully assembled should you have questions along these lines as it might applt to receiving the goods, we are here each weekday M-F from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM Eastern. We can be messaged at info@officechairsusa.com or you may call us at 888-355-4999. We can also be contacted vis our Live Chat app on every page.

Cancellations
If you change your mind or are forced to cancel due to unexpected circumstances call us right away. We can cancel stock orders if we catch them in time before they leave the factory or distribution center. If the chair is in transit you would then have to accept the chair and then contact us to make return arrangements. If the chair is a ‘special order’ and has entered the production schedule at one of our plants you may not be able to ‘pull the plug’ without a re-stock fee and in some cases the order is not one that can be cancelled at all. Call us right away if you sense that you want to make a change. Factory production schedules are beyond our control and once the chair or desk is scheduled it’s very hard to stop it.

OfficeChairsUSA offers a 45 day guarantee if you are not happy with one of our products. Try the chair out. If you are not happy then contact us and we can walk you through the return process.
