FURNITURE SHOPPING IN HOLLAND
Expats shopping for furniture in the Netherlands should be aware that items on display in smaller, independent furniture stores (and some larger ones), such as sofas, armchairs and dining tables, are generally not stocked but rather but rather custom-made when an order is placed. Lead times vary but commonly run 4-6 weeks.
Flat pack, ready-to-assemble furniture retailers are the exception; items are generally stocked on the selling floor or in a back room. Chains such as Ikea, JYSK and Leen Bakker fall into this category.
It is standard for a full-serve furniture or bed store in the Netherlands to make arrangements for delivery. Many will also offer to have the delivery service take away the old item when it is large or bulky such as a sofa or mattress. It is best to inquire about this extra service at the time of purchase when delivery details are being made. When purchasing online, takeaway service is usually mentioned within the company’s delivery guidelines.
