Shipping Times

Orders are processed immediately upon receipt. Normal shipping time is 3-12 business days for standard UPS and Fed Ex ground. Shoji screens are oversize and can take 10 -12 (two weeks) business days in transit. Rarely a product may be backordered. If so, you will be contacted with expected shipping and delivery time.

Bedroom sets and furniture require between 2-4 weeks for delivery, unless otherwise noted. All furniture products require truck line shipping.

International Shipping

Haiku Designs can ship products almost anywhere in the world. We ship UPS Air Express, U.S. Post Office Express or Fed Ex Great Rates, whichever is available and more economical. We charge exact shipping charges and do not add any extra handling or packing fees. International shipping charges are often significantly more expensive than domestic charges.

For international or Canada shipping prices, place an order for the products you want over our secure server. We will calculate the most economical shipping charges and notify you by e-mail. If you approve, we will then process your order and ship. All custom fees, import duties, taxes if any, will be extra and will be the responsibility of the buyer. International shipping times range from 5-10 business days for UPS up to 2 weeks and more for U.S. Postal Service.

Truck Line Shipping Charges — Furniture, Mattresses, Statues

Mattresses, Sofas, most Furniture items, and some Statues require the security of truck line shipping due to their weight and size. Haiku Designs uses only Class #1 truck line carriers and have secured volume discounts, allowing us to pass on significant savings to the consumer.

Our “Residential Front Door Delivery Service” offers more than back of the truck pick up, or curbside drop off and insures that your valuable purchase is delivered right to your front door.

UPS Shipping Charges — Gifts, Shoji Screens, Lamps, Art, Comforters

Lamps, gift items, clocks, and most accessories can be shipped UPS ground.

We then double check each order with the UPS National shipping system to ensure the best possible shipping price.

Shoji Screens and some lamps are oversize #2 and incur a fixed UPS shipping charge shipped to any location within the continental US. This shipping price is noted on the product information line.
