Everything you need to know about our delivery experience during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

Yes, we are still delivering across the USA and Canada.

At Article, we’ve organized our shipping to be affordable, fast, and communicative. We’re committed to ensuring the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 doesn’t change that, but there are a few things that we’re doing a little differently and potential impacts to delivery times on some orders.

DELIVERY TIMES

The majority of our product is in stock, ready to be shipped to you from one of our local warehouses. So, if you’re looking to make your space a little more comfortable right now, we’ve got what you need to do that.

However, exceptional demand during the last few weeks means that some of our products are currently out of stock — and unfortunately, that means longer delivery ETAs than we would like on those products. You can find the delivery estimate for the product(s) you are interested in by entering your ZIP or postal code on the product page. We only ever provide delivery timelines we are confident we can meet, and we’re working to restock any affected products as fast as possible. We’ll keep you updated if we are able to get your product to you sooner than originally estimated.

If your order includes multiple products (some in stock, some not), you’ll be able to choose to have the in-stock products delivered right away at no extra cost.

CONTACTLESS DELIVERY

To help ensure the health and safety of our customers, our team, and the broader community we’ve introduced Contactless Delivery as our default delivery option. Contactless Delivery means:

We’ll deliver your item(s) to the front door of your house or apartment
We’ll knock/buzz, and will greet you at your door while maintaining a six-foot social distance
Your signature won’t be required — our team will simply photograph your order at your doorstep as proof of delivery

Some multi-tenant buildings are restricting access to non-residents. We’re supportive of these measures, and in these cases our delivery team will deliver to the closest point to your home that they’re safely able to.

In-Room and Assembly Services

We’ve temporarily disabled all in-room shipping options to best ensure we can maintain a social distance during your delivery. If you require assistance bringing your order inside or with product assembly, get in touch with us and we’ll do our best to provide these services in a safe way for you and our team. Unfortunately we are not currently able to offer these services in all areas. If we can't provide your requested service level we’re happy to hold your order until we are able to.

ADDITIONAL DELIVERY TEAM HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Our main priority is protecting the health and safety of employees and customers. In addition to implementing contactless delivery protocols, our own Article Delivery Team (ADT) and our delivery partners have implemented health and hygiene practices recommended by health authorities to ensure everyone stays safe.

Every one of our own ADT delivery trucks is equipped with key sanitary items, including masks, latex gloves and sanitizing wipes. Work gloves will be worn by our team whenever boxes are handled.

Once the delivery is complete, drivers are required to practice good hygiene and use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer or sanitizing wipes that contain at least 60% alcohol (when soap and water are not available to wash their hands).

Additionally, we have implemented the necessary measures to keep our workplace safe for employees, such as isolated shifts, mandated social distancing within the warehouse, and increased sanitation. Our delivery drivers have been instructed to stay home if they show any sign of flu-like symptoms, and we have policies in place to offer paid sick leave to these employees.

Our delivery partners are also taking extra precautionary measures. While exact steps differ between carriers, they’re all following procedures in accordance with the health and hygiene practices recommended by health authorities.

We’ll continue to follow recommendations from public health organizations to keep our team, partners, and customers safe and healthy.

DELIVERY NETWORK STATUS

We are delivering across the USA and Canada.

Note: Some return or exchange pick-ups may be impacted temporarily as a result of the measures we have taken to protect everyone’s health and safety. Please get in touch to discuss the return and exchange options available in your area.

If any disruptions occur or we’re temporarily unable to deliver to certain areas, our team will get in touch with affected customers to let them know, and we’ll work to deliver those orders as soon as we’re able to. We’ll also keep this page updated and list any areas with service interruptions.

If you have any questions about the status of your order and would like to speak with us directly, please get in touch.

YOUR COMMITMENT

For the safety of our staff and other customers, we trust that if you have a scheduled delivery you’ll get in touch with us if you’re experiencing any flu-like symptoms and need to be in isolation. We’re more than happy to hold your order and complete the delivery at a later date.
