If you need the furniture at a later time, for example at a move in date, just let us know after placing your order or pick your preferred date in the checkout. Placing your order a couple weeks in advance if possible is always a good idea.

Express

Need your furniture within the next 3 days? We can sometimes arrange it, at an additional delivery cost. Reach out via email, providing your delivery post code, items & requested date and we will confirm the custom delivery cost.

Prepare your space as you would for any large delivery. Remove any objects that could be in the way so the delivery team has enough space to get your furniture in.

Do also let us know if there might be any issues with parking or accessing your home, or if you live on a higher floor without a lift. This will help our team prepare in the best way for the delivery day.


The delivery team will always be able to put your items in your room of choice.

Most items will be delivered to you fully assembled. If not, we will of course provide the instructions. Typically our furniture will only require light assembly, like attaching legs to a tabletop.

If you would like to add assembly this is available for £15 per item (only required for items that come un-assembled) and £19 for all package removal. Please request this via email at least 48 hours before your delivery.


If within 14 days you change your mind, we can provide a replacement item (where available in stock) or you can return your items for a refund. Delivery fees or other custom charges are typically not refunded. 

The items should be unused and returned in the same condition and original packaging in which they were received. A collection fee may be applicable.

Returns

The pick up charge depends on the number of items to be returned.

1-3 items: £39
4+ items: £69


Most of our packaging does not need to be kept but can just be recycled right away, such as paper or cardboard. We do sometimes wrap furniture with reusable materials, such as fabrics and straps. If this is the case, we also provide a small fabric bag for you to safely store these, and return them together with your furniture.

Do note that if you return your items already during the 14 day return window, they should be in the same condition as when you received them and still have the original packaging.

Furniture

We pride ourselves on offering high quality furniture. Our customers score our furniture on average 9.2/10. 

To achieve this, we partner with brands that offer furniture of high quality that is durable and sustainable. We look for functional and contemporary pieces. Some of the brands you'll find on the website include HÅG, Swyft, Anglepoise, Revive Furniture, Oakywood and Woodman. We also have our own line of Zenkki items.

If you are missing any items, do feel free to reach out.

Zenkki is a circular service, so if If you subscribe to an item it will not necessarily be brand new. We aim for all furniture to be in very good condition with only slight signs of usage. If an item is no longer deemed suitable to be rented out, it is removed from the range.

You will always get to check and confirm you are happy with the furniture at delivery.


Zenkki certified items are proven to fit our circular model. They are of good quality and ideally sustainably produced. They are easy to transport, assemble and disassemble and it’s possible to replace parts in order to increase their longevity. Basically, we have a list of criteria to ensure we only provide good quality items, so you don’t have to worry about it.


We have extensive quality control in place and all items have been chosen because they are suitable for a circular model.

1. All items go through a deep clean and sanitation process. Depending on the item, this involves vacuuming, disinfecting surfaces, and washing and steam cleaning fabrics.

2. Any item that could need a little pick me up is refurbished, as much as possible, back to its previous glory. This sometimes involves reupholstering items by replacing or recovering the fabric, refinishing paint or wooden surfaces or swapping out spare parts such as legs.

Despite these steps some items will show signs of usage, for example light scratches on wooden surfaces. A big part of Zenkki's mission is the circularity and keeping quality items in use longer which we hope is important to our customers too.

We are committed to never throwing away furniture pre-maturely and we find that items can have a long life with the right care and refurbishment. In the instance that an item would not be suitable for a subscription anymore, we sell the item second hand or make sure it comes to good use with a number of charity partners.

We expect some normal wear and tear during your subscription. As our furniture goes through an extensive refurbishment process, they'll be made to look almost like new again. You could be charged for more significant damage which is beyond normal wear and tear, or if an item is completely beyond repair, for the replacement value.

Do note that if you return your items during the 14 day return window however, they should be in the same condition as when you received them.

Too big amounts of furniture end up in landfills each year, something we know could be prevented if the industry took steps to help people furnish their homes with more durable, high-quality items. It also requires a mindshift to restore and re-circle items.

One of the main reasons Zenkki started is to provide an affordable way to access high quality furniture. We want it to be a cost efficient option to the "fast furniture" you might otherwise opt for. Ownership doesn't always need to be the default, sometimes flexibility and sustainability could be the better option.

- As Zenkki is a circular service we take it on us to restore and refurbish our items to keep them in use longer. This goes for both the subscription and buy models.

- We carefully choose the items and brands we work with, looking for sustainable manufacturing processes and durable materials.

- We aim to make environmentally conscious decisions in all parts of the business. For example all packaging material in our warehouse is stored and reused for repackaging other items.
