Shipping & Return Policy

Delivery Time

Each product page displays “ships within” information. This is the estimated time (actual time may vary) from the date the order is received until the product is dispatched from our warehouse located in Poland. The time from dispatch to delivery to your specified destination depends on both the distance from the warehouse and local regulations at the final destination; however, the time from dispatch to delivery is usually not longer than a week. For time-sensitive deliveries please reach out to our customer team at info@hem.com

If you placed an order for products with different dispatch times the full order will be on hold until your entire order is available to be dispatched.

Requested Delivery Dates

Have an upcoming install or urgent project? We suggest adding a requested delivery date. When creating a quote on Hem Pro you can specify a requested delivery date for your order. Please note, that although we cannot guarantee the exact date of delivery, we aim to accommodate this whenever possible given stock availability and ship-to location. If you have a time-sensitive project, send us an email with all details to pro@hem.com and we’ll do what we can to help!

Delivery Methods and Rates

The shipping rate for your order is determined by the value of the items in your quote.

Hem schedules shipments with the contact details provided at checkout (email, phone number, and delivery address). Always make sure the information provided at checkout is correct to avoid unnecessary delays with your delivery. 

Below is a breakdown of our delivery methods and rates.

Sample delivery

Samples will be delivered as standard parcels with Postnord.

Standard parcel delivery

10% of quote total*

Small furniture and accessories will be delivered as standard parcels via GLS (in countries where GLS does not operate, the parcel is handed over to a partner courier).

GLS will make two delivery attempts to the provided address. After two attempts, the parcel will be available for collection at the nearest GLS pick-up point. It will remain available for 10 days before being sent back to the warehouse. If your shipment has been returned to the warehouse you need to contact us at support@hem.com to arrange a new shipment. An extra delivery cost may apply.

Please note that GLS partner couriers may operate with a slight difference in terms of delivery attempts and pick-up points. We ask you to monitor your parcel through the GLS website and/or the partner website to receive direct information.

Curbside delivery

10% of quote total*

Curbside delivery means that our partner Gefco will deliver your item(s) to the curb of your specified delivery address on a pallet. The pallet will be left with the delivery. This service does not include inside delivery, item assembly, or removal of pallets and packaging.

Our logistics partner will contact you before the delivery with a proposed delivery date and time frame. There will be an option to reschedule if the time frame is not convenient. If you are not available at the agreed time of delivery, your item may be returned to the warehouse. If your shipment has been returned to the warehouse you need to contact us at support@hem.com to arrange a new shipment. An extra delivery cost may apply.

*For orders shipping to Norway or Switzerland, there will be an additional charge per order, +40€ for Norway and +140€ for Switzerland, to cover transport and import customs procedures. Additional customs fees and national VAT will be charged by the local tax authorities and need to be paid separately by the customer. Should you have further questions regarding these additional charges please contact your local tax office.

Cancellation & Order Edits

As soon as an order is received we prepare it for shipping (unless a later delivery date was requested). This results in a small window where changes to an order can be made. Make sure to reach out to us immediately at support@hem.com, and if your order has not been processed for shipment by the warehouse, we will do our best to accommodate requests to cancel or edit whenever possible.

Return Policy

 

We want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase from Hem!

You may return your new Hem purchase in its original packaging and condition within 14 days of receipt. Hem reserves the right to refuse returned items that are not in original condition due to the following reasons (but not limited to): missing the original packaging, item packaged differently than the way received, missing components, visible damages caused by the customer, or incorrect packaging. The customer is responsible for any shipping charges associated with returning an item to our warehouse in Poland. Please contact our customer team to initiate a return at support@hem.com. Make sure to include your order number as well as a reason for the return. 

If your order has been returned to our warehouse due to failed delivery attempts, you can either request a refund minus accumulated shipping costs for the order, or we can re-ship the order once re-shipment costs have been paid.
