  • Can I organize my own freight company to collect my order from Flatpack Modular, and what should I consider before doing so?
    Yes, you can organize your own freight company to collect your order from Flatpack Modular. However, there are a few important considerations to keep in mind: 1. **Type of Freight:** Your order is only suitable for 'furniture freight' and not 'general freight.' This is because our flatpack and modular joinery products need specialized handling to avoid damage during transport. Make sure the freight company you choose is experienced in handling furniture to ensure safe delivery. 2. **Risk and Insurance:** By choosing to organize your own freight, you take responsibility for the goods during shipping. Flatpack Modular does not provide insurance or replacements for goods damaged in transit when you choose an independent freight company. It’s highly recommended to discuss insurance options with your chosen freight company to protect your purchase. By following these guidelines, you can help ensure that your Flatpack Modular order, whether it's for custom kitchens, wardrobes, or cabinetry, arrives safely and in good condition. If you have any additional questions or need recommendations for reliable furniture freight companies, don’t hesitate to reach out to our customer service team.
