La-Z-Boy Southeast | January 22, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused furniture delays for homeowners across the world.
At La-Z-Boy Home Furnishings & Décor, we’re working hard to ensure your furniture orders are completed as soon as possible.
In this article, we’ll take a look at how COVID-19 has caused furniture delays and what you can do to be prepared.
How COVID-19 Has Caused Furniture Delays
Spending more time at home has led us to pay more attention to our current furniture and interior design situation.
It seems like there’s no better time than now to upgrade your home with new furniture.
This has caused an overwhelming increase in the demand for living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture.
Furniture manufacturing plants have struggled to keep up with increased demand due to the effects of COVID-19.
The lack of supply along with increased demand has caused furniture delays around the world.
How La-Z-Boy Southeast Is Responding to COVID-19
The health and safety of our customers, employees, and communities has been our number one focus during this pandemic.
We’re proactively investing in our stores, people, and processes to continually improve your furniture shopping experience.
For example, we’ve introduced virtual design consultations along with private appointments to help you find the perfect furniture for your home.
We have hired and are currently hiring degreed interior designers and design consultants to keep up with demand.
Plus, our team is in the process of renovating our showrooms to make them safer and more focused on your interior design needs.
How To Prepare for Furniture Delays Due to COVID-19
Planning ahead and being aware of manufacturing and shipping delays will help you be prepared.
It’s a good idea to hold on to your old furniture in case your new furniture experiences delays.
When you place your order, make sure you’re 100% certain your brand new furniture:
- Will fit in your room.
- Is in the correct leather or fabric.
- Meets all of your family’s needs.
This will keep you from experiencing further delays due to returns and exchanges.
