A mix up between purchase vendor and delivery company meant it arrived later than I'd expected. Had been told, by vendor, delivery to garden. Actually kerb side. Not helpful as I'm 66 and the gazebo b... See more

Terrible Delivery Service

We had a delivery scheduled using Route 1, this was a sofa delivery. Previously we have had a very good experience with the delivery company hence why we purchased another item from the company that uses them. However this experience has completely out me off using Willow & Hall if they continue to use this company. They never called to notify they were on route. They just turned up. We ordered a sofa bed which they decided to dismantle in the middle of the street! The chaps that turned up were so rude & in a hurry to get up a short flight of stairs that they rammed the sofa into a light fixture which smashed. There was no apology or even an offer to clear up the mess. They then proceeded into the home and without the help of our french polisher who was on site I strongly believe more damage would have been done to our home. I'm deeply disappointed in the way this has been handled without any word of an apology or acknowledgement of the complaint. The drivers force you to sign a waiver that says if they cause damage its not their fault and if you refuse to sign they refuse to deliver the item!!! This gives them a free pass to do what they please in your home. It really is disgusting behaviour.

Route1 threw half my order away

Route1 delivered half of my order, and left me to try to resolve this with the vendor. It transpires that they’d thrown the other half away. I don’t know why.

They made no effort to resolve this and were unapologetic. The order cost over £2000. I’ve still yet to get a refund.

Excellent Delivery of new sofabed

The two-man team from Route 1 delivered my new Willow & Hall sofabed today. The comms regading delivery were excellent, they were extremely careful with the sofabed whilst bringing it into my house, which has small doorways and presented a bit of a challenge.

They were very pleasant and I am very grateful for their 'Can do' attitude - very well done and a credit to your company.

I would not hesitate to recommend.

Absolute joke of a company

Absolute joke of a company, garden storage box failed to turn up. We were told on three occasions it a date of delivery on each occasion it never appeared. On contacting the company they informed us that they haven't even got the box. The box has never appeared should have been delivered May 21st I've spoken to customer services and they are not customer orientated whatsoever. Matter is now going to the Police

Willow and Hall Delivery

We had a sofa bed and armchair from Willow and Hall delivered today to Exmouth, Devon. Our daughter who lives locally met the two man team who ensured a smooth delivery and took the time to show her how to operate the sofa bed. Very happy with the quality of the furniture and the delivery by Route1.

Cheerful & efficient

My two delivery men were polite, friendly and efficient. They were happy to manoeuvre around the narrow doorways of my little old cottage & although they weren’t sure how to put the legs on the sofa, they worked it out & finished the job tidily for me.

Polite delivery men

Two gentlemen that delivered my furniture were very polite and very smiley which you don’t always get when they are so busy. They are a credit to your company.

Invisible man.

If I knew it was coming I would have greeted the invisible man who delivered it. I did'nt get notice , so lucky I was in. But, upon going to the door following a "knock" ( I have a bell!) the package was on my doorstep with not a soul in sight. Whoever it was must have run away!!!

Consignment delivery

The delivery operatives rang to let me know of their imminent arrival, unloaded from the vehicle and stacked as per requirements. No problems at all.
