Shipping Policy

Shipping Policy

Effective Date: July 12, 2026

Welcome to geelswoonwarenhuis. This Shipping Policy is designed to give you a clear, complete picture of how we handle your order from the moment you click “Buy” to the moment it arrives at your door. It covers everything from processing timelines and delivery estimates to tracking, address accuracy, delays, and what to do if something goes wrong along the way. We encourage you to read through it before placing an order so there are no surprises.

All prices, shipping charges, and order totals mentioned throughout this policy are listed in Euros (€) unless stated otherwise.

Where We Ship

geelswoonwarenhuis currently fulfills orders to residential and commercial addresses located within the Netherlands and surrounding regions, including standard mailing addresses recognized by major domestic and European carriers.

If you are unsure whether we ship to your location, please reach out to our support team at info@geelswoonwarenhuis.

Shipping Rates

We aim to keep shipping simple and predictable.

  • Free Shipping: We are proud to offer Free Shipping on all orders across our available shipping regions, with no minimum purchase required.

  • Occasionally, promotional periods or special campaigns may temporarily adjust terms. Any such changes will be clearly reflected at checkout and will not be applied retroactively to orders already placed.

Daily Order Cut-Off

Orders placed before 4:00 PM Central European Time (CET) on any business day are typically queued to begin processing the same day. Orders placed after this time may be processed on the next business day.

Orders placed after this daily cut-off, as well as orders placed on weekends or recognized public holidays, are queued to begin processing on the next available business day. This ensures every order is handled by our fulfillment team during normal operating hours rather than rushed outside of them.

Order Processing Time

Orders are typically prepared for shipment within 1 to 2 business days (Monday–Friday) after payment is confirmed. During this window, several things happen behind the scenes:

  • Payment and billing details are verified.

  • The order is reviewed for accuracy, including item selection and shipping address.

  • Items are picked, quality-checked, and securely packaged.

  • The completed package is handed off to the appropriate shipping carrier.

During periods of high order volume, such as seasonal sales or holiday campaigns, processing may occasionally extend slightly beyond this window. We will always try to notify customers if a meaningful delay is expected.

Transit Time

Once shipped, orders generally arrive within 2 to 7 business days, depending on the destination. This window can vary depending on your specific location, the carrier handling the shipment, and external conditions such as weather or regional service disruptions.

Estimated Total Delivery Time

Most orders arrive within 3 to 9 business days from the date the order is placed, combining both processing and transit time.

Please note that all delivery estimates are provided as a general guide only. They are not guaranteed delivery dates, and actual delivery may occur earlier or later depending on carrier performance and other factors outside our direct control.

What Counts as a Business Day

For the purposes of this policy, a business day is defined as Monday through Friday, excluding public holidays observed either by geelswoonwarenhuis / H. Geels Winkels B.V. or by the shipping carrier handling your order. Orders are not processed or transported on weekends or observed holidays.

Carriers We Work With

Depending on your delivery address and current operational factors, your order may be shipped using reliable domestic and international shipping carriers. We select the carrier best suited to your destination at the time of shipment to help ensure the most reliable and efficient delivery possible. We do not guarantee delivery through any one specific carrier.

Order Tracking

Every order shipped from geelswoonwarenhuis includes tracking information.

Once your package has been picked up by the carrier, you can typically expect a shipping confirmation email containing your tracking number within 24 to 48 hours. You can check the real-time status of your delivery at any point by visiting our Track Your Order page and entering your order details.

If you have not received tracking information within the expected window, please get in touch with us at info@geelswoonwarenhuis so we can look into it.

Changing or Cancelling an Order

We understand that plans change, and we will do our best to accommodate order adjustments whenever possible.

  • If you need to change an item, shipping address, or cancel your order entirely, please contact us as soon as possible after placing it.

  • Requests received while your order is still awaiting fulfillment will be reviewed and, where feasible, accommodated.

  • Once an order has moved into fulfillment or has already been handed off to the shipping carrier, we are typically unable to make changes or cancel it, as the package is already in motion.

For information on refunds, exchanges, or returns after delivery, please refer to our Return & Refund Policy.

Shipping Address Accuracy

It is the customer’s responsibility to make sure that all shipping details — including street address, apartment or unit number, city, and postal code — are entered correctly at checkout.

If a package is returned to us because of an incomplete, incorrect, or undeliverable address supplied at the time of order, we may need to charge an additional shipping fee to reship the order once the correct information has been confirmed. We recommend double-checking your address carefully before submitting your order.

Delivered but Not Received

If your tracking status shows that a package has been delivered but you’re unable to locate it, please don’t panic — this sometimes happens due to placement by the carrier, a neighbor accepting it on your behalf, or a brief scanning delay.

In this situation:

  • Check around your delivery location, including porches, mailrooms, side doors, and with neighbors or household members.

  • Wait 24 hours, as some carriers mark packages as delivered slightly before physical drop-off.

  • If the package still cannot be found, contact our support team at info@geelswoonwarenhuis so we can open a claim and coordinate directly with the carrier.

Any resolution offered in these cases will be handled in accordance with our return and refund policies.

Shipping Delays

While we work hard to meet our estimated timeframes, delivery schedules can occasionally be impacted by circumstances beyond our control, including:

  • Severe weather events

  • Regional or national transportation disruptions

  • Public holidays and peak shipping seasons

  • Unusually high carrier volume

If we become aware of a delay affecting your order, we will do our best to keep you informed and provide updated tracking information as soon as it becomes available.

Lost Packages

If tracking shows no movement for an extended period, or your order appears to be lost in transit, please reach out to us right away at info@geelswoonwarenhuis. We will open an investigation with the responsible carrier to determine the status and location of your shipment.

Because carrier investigations can take time, we ask for your patience during this process. Once the investigation concludes, any applicable resolution — such as a replacement or refund — will be handled according to our store policies.

Damaged Packages

If your order arrives visibly damaged, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery at info@geelswoonwarenhuis so we can begin reviewing your case promptly.

To help us process your request efficiently, please include the following when you reach out:

  • Your order number

  • Clear photos of the damaged item(s)

  • Clear photos of the outer shipping packaging

  • A short description of the damage

Each damage claim is reviewed individually, and we will work with you to determine the most appropriate resolution, which may include a replacement, repair guidance, or refund depending on the situation.

Multiple-Item and Split Shipments

If your order contains multiple items, they may occasionally ship separately or arrive on different dates depending on warehouse location, item availability, or packaging requirements. If this happens, you will receive separate tracking information for each shipment so you can monitor every part of your order individually.

Holiday and Peak Season Shipping

During major holidays and high-volume shopping periods, order volumes across the shipping industry increase significantly, which can affect both processing and transit timeframes. We recommend placing time-sensitive orders a little earlier than usual during these periods to help ensure timely delivery.

Undeliverable or Refused Packages

If a package is refused at the time of delivery, or is returned to us as undeliverable through no fault of geelswoonwarenhuis (for example, after multiple failed delivery attempts due to incorrect customer details), we reserve the right to deduct standard shipping costs from any applicable refund once the package is received back at our facility.
