Your BC Office Chair Questions, Answered

Q. Do you offer free shipping to Vancouver Island?

Yes. This is one of our most common questions. We offer Free Shipping to Victoria, Nanaimo, Courtenay, and most other locations on the Island. You don't have to worry about the ferry cost adding to your furniture bill.

Q. Do you ship to Northern BC or the Interior?

We have you covered. Whether you are in Prince George, Kelowna, Fort St. John, or Smithers, we offer Free Shipping to most locations.

Note: There are rare exceptions. For oversized items (like some Big & Tall chairs) or very remote areas (as listed in our Terms), shipping costs may apply. But for the vast majority of BC towns, shipping is on us.

Q. Why is the Ibex chair so popular in BC?

The Ibex MVL2803 is our number one seller here for a reason. It features a "Multi-Tilter" mechanism. This allows for infinite adjustment of the back and seat angles. This helps employees maintain a neutral posture, which is a key part of ergonomic standards.

Q. Do you have chairs suitable for 24-hour shifts?

Yes. We supply chairs to emergency services and industrial control rooms (like those in the resource sector). Chairs like the ObusForme Comfort series or the Overtime model are designed for heavy-duty, multi-shift use.

Q. Can we buy in bulk for a School District or Government office?

Absolutely. A large portion of our business in BC comes from School Districts and Ministries. We are experienced in handling large procurement orders. Please contact our team directly for a personalized quote.
