Introduction
Furnishing a home, refreshing a garden or picking up seasonal décor usually means bouncing between several shops. One place for sofas, another for paint, another for Christmas lights, and somehow you still need compost and a new duvet cover. That is the everyday problem The Range set out to solve: a single home and garden variety store where thousands of products across many departments sit under one roof, both in store and online.
Founded in 1989 with a first store in Plymouth, The Range describes itself as the nation’s favourite home variety and furniture store. It stocks everything from furniture and home furnishings to garden supplies, arts and crafts, lighting and seasonal collections. In this guide, we look at how to shop The Range for your home, what Click & Collect and delivery options look like, and how returns work. You can browse the full catalogue at The Range.
1. Why a Home Variety Store Makes Everyday Shopping Easier
When routines are hectic, consolidating errands saves time and delivery fees. The Range positions itself around convenience and value, with an online catalogue and hundreds of UK stores so you can shop in whichever way suits the day.
According to the brand, its departments cover the situations that come up in a typical household: decorating, cooking, garden maintenance, gifts, seasonal refreshers and the small everyday essentials that run out without warning. Because the mix spans both big-ticket furniture and low-cost home basics, you can plan a room refresh and still grab the practical items you need in the same order.
- One basket: furniture, soft furnishings, garden and DIY in a single checkout
- Seasonal speed: Halloween, Christmas and autumn collections that change with the calendar
- Choice of how you shop: home delivery, Click & Collect, or in-store browsing
- Budget flexibility: mix of affordable homeware and larger furniture pieces
2. Furniture for Every Room

The furniture department is one of The Range’s flagship areas. The brand says it stocks modern, traditional and unique pieces for every room, including beds, mattresses, sofas, TV stands and children’s furniture, with options across budgets.
At the time of writing, examples on the furniture pages include bed frames such as the Darby Bed in beige at £199.99 and several ottoman storage beds in the mid £200s, alongside sofas, dining sets and hallway pieces. Product ranges and prices change often, so it is worth checking the live The Range furniture department before you buy.
Useful ways to approach a furniture shop:
- Start with the room’s hero piece (sofa or bed), then match storage and occasional furniture
- Measure doorways and staircases before ordering large items
- Check whether an item is sold by The Range or a Marketplace Partner, as return rules differ
- Look at current furniture offers and clearance if you are shopping to a tight budget
The Range also notes that some furniture can be delivered to your home or collected from store, and it highlights a free-delivery furniture selection when offers apply.
3. Soft Furnishings and Everyday Home Décor

Once the big pieces are in place, soft furnishings do the work of making a room feel finished. The Range’s home furnishings range covers mirrors, wall art, clocks, bedding, cushions, throws, rugs, curtains and blinds, so you can coordinate a look without leaving the site.
According to the brand, you can brighten empty walls with frames and canvases, add warmth with blankets and rugs, and finish windows with pencil pleat, eyelet, blackout or thermal curtains. Seasonal New In collections are used to push on-trend colour palettes, which is useful if you like refreshing a room for autumn or Christmas without replacing furniture.
The Range also points shoppers to wilko.com for additional soft furnishing collections, noting Wilko as part of The Range family. For most everyday décor needs, though, the main The Range home furnishings range is the place to start.
4. Garden Supplies, From Seeds to Sheds

The garden department is built for both weekend tidy-ups and bigger outdoor projects. The Range lists seeds, bulbs, composts, hand tools, planters, sheds, greenhouses, fencing, turf, decking, water features and bird care, so a full garden shop can happen in one place.
At the time of writing, examples on the garden pages include multi-purpose composts, grass seed, storage boxes, arches with planters and artificial foliage screening, with prices shown on each product card. The brand also highlights lawn care, irrigation ideas such as water butts and hoses, and pond equipment for customers building a water feature.
Practical garden shopping tips:
- Stock compost, feed and tools before peak planting weekends
- Use the store network for bulky items that are awkward to have delivered
- Pair structural pieces (sheds, arches, screening) with seasonal plants and décor
- Check Click & Collect availability on heavy bags of compost or soil
You can explore the full outdoor mix in the The Range garden department.
5. Seasonal Collections That Keep Pace With the Calendar
Homes change with the seasons, and The Range leans into that. The homepage rotates collections such as Halloween, Christmas, autumn interiors, lighting offers and garden maintenance, so you can shop themed décor and practical seasonal kit without hunting across multiple retailers.
That matters if you like to set a festive table, refresh cushions for autumn, or stock outdoor lights before the busy period. Because the same account and basket cover furniture and seasonal décor, you can plan a room update and a holiday shop together.
6. Shopping In Store Across the UK
If you prefer to see products in person, The Range says you can explore its ranges in over 280 UK stores, from the original Plymouth branch to larger multi-storey locations. A store finder on the website helps you locate the nearest branch and opening times.
In-store shopping is especially useful for:
- Testing furniture fabrics and colours under real light
- Picking up bulky garden or DIY items the same day
- Collecting Click & Collect orders at a Collection Point
- Browsing seasonal displays before they sell through online
Click & Collect is available across The Range stores in the UK and Republic of Ireland, according to the brand’s FAQ.
7. Click & Collect, Order & Collect, and Home Delivery
The Range offers several ways to get your order, and the right choice depends on speed, size and whether you want to avoid a delivery wait.
Click & Collect is free. You order online against in-store stock, staff pick the items, and you collect when you receive the ready notification. The brand says same-day collection is available for orders placed during store opening hours (orders after closing are usually next day), and orders are held for up to 7 days before automatic cancellation and refund. You will need your order confirmation and ID at the Collection Point. Marketplace Partner products and some online exclusives are generally excluded.
Order & Collect delivers small and regular items to your local store for a flat £3.95 fee, with collection from around 2 working days. Orders are held for 10 days; uncollected orders are returned and refunded minus the delivery-to-store fee.
Home delivery prices depend on the item size and your postcode. At the time of writing, The Range’s delivery help pages list options such as Saver Delivery from £3.95 (about 5 to 7 working days), Express or Next Day options from £4.95, Fragile Item Delivery from £9.95, and larger furniture deliveries on longer lead times. Remote Scottish, Northern Irish and Republic of Ireland postcodes have different pricing. Large and extra-large items generally cannot be delivered above one flight of stairs unless a lift is available.
Basket totals and postcode checks on therange.co.uk give the most accurate current delivery quote.
8. Returns, Refunds and What to Watch For
For online and Click & Collect orders, The Range asks you to notify them within 14 days of receipt, then return or arrange collection within a further 14 days, so items are back within 28 calendar days. In-store purchases should be returned unused within 14 days. Refunds are typically processed within 3 to 5 working days once the return is received.
Key caveats from the brand’s returns pages:
- Most smaller online items can be returned to any store with the delivery note
- Most larger products such as furniture cannot be returned to store
- Postal returns need prior authorisation from Customer Care
- Made-to-order items are excluded from standard change-of-mind returns after the 48-hour processing window
- Marketplace Partner items follow partner return rules and usually cannot go back to The Range stores
- Online orders cannot be exchanged; return and reorder instead
If something arrives damaged or incomplete, contact Customer Care promptly with your order number. Checking whether a listing is a Marketplace Partner item before you buy will save frustration later.
9. Who Is The Range Best For?
The Range is a strong fit if you:
- Want furniture, décor, garden and DIY in one place
- Prefer value-led prices with frequent seasonal offers
- Like the option of free Click & Collect from a local store
- Are furnishing a first home or refreshing rooms on a budget
- Need garden supplies and indoor homeware in the same shop
It may be less ideal if you only want a single designer furniture brand, or if every item in your basket is a Marketplace Partner product with separate delivery and return rules. For most households doing a practical home or garden shop, though, the breadth is the point.
Conclusion
Running a home means constant small purchases and the occasional big one. The Range brings those together across furniture, furnishings, garden and seasonal departments, with click-and-collect convenience and a large UK store network behind the website.
Whether you are refreshing a living room, stocking the shed or getting ahead of Christmas décor, you can compare departments, delivery options and current offers at The Range.
