Which courier do you use to deliver my blinds?
Our carrier partners are TNT, DX, DPD, IFS and Tuffnels. If your courier does not arrive or your package has gone missing, please contact our customer services team.
Can I book my fitter?
If you have booked a fitting service through John Lewis, please refer any questions you have to their customer service team. If you choose to book a separate third-party fitter for your blinds, please do not book your fitting appointment until the blinds have been received and checked by you. This is to ensure there are no defects with all parts present and complete. We also advise not to take specific time off work to wait for a delivery. Shade & Story will not pay towards or cover the cost of any third-party fitter costs you may incur.
What if I’m not at home at the time of delivery or miss my delivery?
If for any reason you miss your delivery, our delivery company will leave their calling card and information on how to arrange redelivery at a convenient time for you, for no extra cost.

Lost & Missing Orders

I'm missing a part of my order?
As our made to measure goods are despatched from different locations, it is not unusual for part of your order to be delivered on another day within the expected delivery range. Some parcels naturally are split in the courier sorting hub for two different delivery drivers to deliver.
Vertical blinds - As standard our vertical blinds are sent out as two items, our courier will normally split these items up and can be on different delivery vehicles. If you have only received one item, don't panic – give us a call to find out more information.
What are the procedures if my goods are lost by the courier?
If your goods have gone missing, please contact our customer services as soon as possible. If you have ordered more than one type of blind, you may find that these are delivered separately.
Note on Vertical blinds - As our vertical blinds are sent out as two items as standard (slats and head rail), therefore our courier may split these up and put them on different delivery vehicles. If you have only had one item, please feel free to give us a call for more information.
What do I do if my parcel arrives damaged?
On the rare occasion that a parcel is damaged in transit, please sign as ‘damaged’ on the carrier’s note. If the goods inside are actually damaged rather than just the packaging, please contact customer services as soon as possible.
