Ready to order? Your furniture is in-stock, nearby, and can be delivered quickly and inexpensively. Select your delivery date, place your order online and you'll soon receive your furniture from a local store that knows furniture delivery and will always be there to help.

What furniture brands do you carry?

The result is thousands of items to choose from and a balanced selection of prices and styles. And no matter what you purchase, every item is backed by our retail partners’ comprehensive guarantees, warranties and service programs.

What kind of savings do you offer?
Our retail partners are among the largest furniture stores in Pakistan. Their tremendous buying power gets them the lowest prices from furniture manufacturers - and allows Furniture.com to pass the savings onto you.

In addition to everyday low prices, sign up for your GharPyara.com account today to receive notification of exclusive Preferred Customer sales events.


What about delivery?
At GharPyara.com, unlike with other online retailers, your merchandise is delivered by a retailer near you. Our retail partners provide fast delivery, offer you the same low delivery cost as their store customers, and are close by should you need help. We think it’s the best of both worlds - the convenience of online shopping plus the efficient local service of leading furniture stores.


Why do you need my zip or postal code?
We won’t sell you furniture until we’re sure we have a retailer in your area that can ensure smooth delivery of your order. As we build our network of retail partners, our delivery area continues to grow. We use your zip or postal code to:

• Let you know immediately if we have a retailer that delivers to your area
• Tailor our selection to make sure you see only items that can be delivered to you
• Offer you special pricing that may only be available in some areas
• Help you find a local showroom in case you want to see an item in person.

How do I know that the color I see on screen is accurate?
Every computer monitor displays colors slightly differently. To ensure you’re seeing the color of our products as they truly are, take the GharPyara.com M&M test. If the colors of the candies you see on screen don’t look the same as they do in real life, try adjusting your monitor’s brightness and contrast. Or refer to your computer user manual for instructions on how to adjust color settings.

Delivery and Pick-Ups

How will my order be delivered?
At GharPyara.com, we use the same systems our retail partners use to deliver thousands of orders a day. Plus, our state-of-the-art online tracking system keeps you in the driver’s seat. You choose your delivery date during the purchase process and can track your order online.

Here’s how it works:

   1. Complete your order on GharPyara.com.
   2. We’ll then submit your order to the retailer that will fulfill your order.
   3. When the retailer accepts your order, they will charge your credit card and we will provide you with:
     a. your Delivery Document Number – this is the reference number the retailer will use for your delivery
     b. contact information for the customer service representatives that can answer questions about your delivery.
   4. After your order is accepted by the retailer, you can track your order on GharPyara.com by clicking “Customer Order” in your GharPyara.com Account.
   5. Before your delivery date, you will be contacted and informed of a time window when your furniture will be delivered. NOTE: In some cases where items are shipped via courier (e.g., TCS) you will not recieve a call, but can use a TCS tracking number to track your package.

Throughout the process, you’ll be taking advantage of some of the most advanced delivery systems in the industry. And, you will always have a local contact that can help you with any questions before or after your delivery.

When will my order be delivered?
Because GharPyara.com works with local retailers, your furniture will be delivered fast, directly from local warehouses. Plus, we let you choose the delivery date before you check out so there's never a question as to when you'll receive your furniture.

When you click "Proceed to Checkout" from your Shopping Cart, we check the inventory at a warehouse near you, and check the times that delivery teams will be in your neighborhood.

On the first page of the order process, we'll show you the earliest date your furniture is available.

On the second page of the order process, once you've entered your exact address, we let you select a delivery date that is convenient for you.

At GharPyara.com, we want you to know exactly when you can get your furniture, and let you choose a convenient day to receive it. Sounds simple, but we're the only furniture website that offers this level of visibility and flexibility.

How much does delivery cost?
Our retail partners deliver thousands of orders a day, which keeps delivery prices low. Delivery charges vary depending on where you live and from which of our retail partners you place your order. The cost of your delivery will be displayed on Step 1 of our Order Process after you click Proceed to Checkout from your GharPyara.com Shopping Cart.

For these orders, once your order has been accepted, we will e-mail you a tracking number that can be used to monitor your delivery. Because these items are delivered directly by TCS, you won't be able to select a delivery date or time, but you will be able to monitor your items' progress from our manufacturers.

Please also note, TCS can only deliver to your door - they cannot place your furniture in your home or assemble your items.

Can I pick up my furniture?
Yes, in many cases you can pick up your furniture at a distribution facility convenient to you. Proceed to Checkout from your GharPyara.com Shopping Cart for full details.
  
How can I see the status of my order?
To view the status of your order, simply login to your GharPyara.com Account and select the Customer Orders under My Account link you want to review or change.

Will my furniture be assembled for me?
In almost all cases, our retail partners will assemble the furniture they deliver. One notable exception is occasional tables, where customer assembly may be required. All items where customer assembly is required are marked as such.

I received an e-mail notifying me the status of my order has changed. Where can I see my order's new status?
All you have to do is login to your GharPyara.com Account and select your Customer Orders for an updated status.

Can I cancel my order?
Orders placed online can generally be cancelled as long as they have not been prepared for delivery by our retailers.

Once you place your order, you will receive the contact information of service representatives that will help you with your order.

To cancel your order, simply call a service representative, or, if you prefer, e-mail us at cancelorder@gharpyara.com. A full refund will promptly be made to your credit card. In some cases a restocking fee may apply if you cancel your order more than 48 hours after it is placed.

What if I'm unhappy with my purchase?
When you purchase from GharPyara.com you’re covered by the same return policies and guarantees as store customers of our retail partners. These retailers are among the largest in the country and are carefully chosen to provide a wide selection of quality merchandise, customer-centric policies and a proven ability to deliver.

Each of our retailers has their own policies, which are explained in detail in several places. First, you can see the policies for a particular product by clicking on the retailer's name on that product's page. The policies for a particular order can also be found by clicking "Policies" on each page of the checkout process.

Can you deliver outside the Pakistan?

Pricing and Payments

Are the prices in my Shopping Cart guaranteed?
GharPyara.com makes every attempt to maintain the lowest prices on the items we offer, but price changes do occur, sometimes overnight. As a result, prices on items stored in your Shopping Cart are subject to change until you have actually placed your order and it has been accepted by one of our retail partners.

Please note, our retail partners reserve the right not to accept your order in the case of a pricing error or other technical issue. In the rare instance that your order is not accepted, you will be notified immediately and your card will not be charged.

We follow the payment policies of our retail partners. Some require just a deposit at the time of order, however many require payment in full at the time of your order.

Your card is not charged at this time. Our retail partner will charge your credit card when your order is processed and accepted by them. Payment requirements are explained fully during the checkout process.
  
Do you offer protection for the furniture you sell?
Yes, our partners offer protection plans that will protect your furniture for years to come!
