Do you have some questions about 57NORTHPLANK? Here are some topics to help drill down into helpful information.
Shipping and Delivery
Q. How will my furniture be packaged?
A. It depends on whether we are personally delivering your order or having it shipped. If it is being shipped then every furniture piece is different. However, we generally use thick foam wrapping on most of the exterior surfaces along with an outer layer of clear plastic. Then, we tape all drawers and doors shut to prevent movement during shipping. Finally, we wooden crate is built around your furniture to provide additional protection. For more information, visit our shipping and delivery page.
Q. How long does it usually take to have a product shipped?
A. It depends on how far you live from 57NorthPlank. If 57NorthPlank is delivering your furniture then 8-12 days after the order is finished in our workshop. If it is being shipped, 9-15 days is pretty typical until it arrives at your home.

A.
