Shipping Policy
Processing & Dispatch
All Orders
All orders — including furniture, hides, sheets, and accessories — are processed and dispatched within 1–3 business days of order placement. Most of our furniture is ready-made and ships on the same timeline as other products.
Custom Furniture Requests
If you are requesting a custom furniture modification or build, contact us at support@mulchleather.com for a custom quote and production timeline. Custom builds will have a separate delivery estimate provided at order confirmation.
Holidays & Delays
Processing times are business days (Monday–Friday, excluding public holidays). During peak seasons, processing may take slightly longer. We will contact you if your order is delayed beyond the stated window.
Shipping Destinations & Costs

We currently ship to USA destinations only. Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your order total and delivery speed preference.

Choose your preferred delivery speed:
- Standard Shipping: $7.99 — Free for orders $50.00 and up

Rates are flat and do not vary by weight or dimensions.
Delivery Times
Standard and Express shipping times vary by destination but typically arrive within 5–10 business days after dispatch. You will receive a tracking number via email.
Tracking
Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a confirmation email with your tracking number and carrier information. Use this to monitor your delivery in real time.
Large Items & Freight Delivery
Furniture & Large Orders
Due to size and weight, furniture and large orders are shipped via freight courier. Our logistics team will contact you to arrange a suitable delivery window and obtain a signature confirmation.
Delivery Coordination
Please ensure someone is available to receive delivery. Re-delivery fees may apply if the initial delivery attempt is unsuccessful. Large items typically require a clear space for unloading.
Handling During Freight Delivery
Our freight partners are experienced with furniture. However, we strongly recommend inspecting the item during unloading and noting any damage on the delivery docket before the driver departs.
Delivery Inspection & Damage Reporting
Inspect Upon Arrival
We strongly recommend inspecting your order at the time of delivery. Check the packaging and item for any visible damage, defects, or signs of mishandling.
Damage on Delivery
If you notice damage to packaging or the item itself, note it on the delivery docket immediately and take photos. This protects your claim.
