About Living Basket

Who we are

Living Basket is a small, deliberately curated home store based in Tampa, Florida. We started with a simple observation: most people do not need a catalog of ten thousand sofas. They need a short list of pieces that will survive a move, a toddler, a rental apartment and a decade of daily use - and they need the price to be honest.

So we keep one warehouse, one catalog and one promise. Today that catalog holds roughly 520 pieces: everyday furniture and the soft finishing layer, everything from solid wood dining sets and upholstered sectionals to nightstands, standing desks, daybeds, accent pillows and throws.

Why our prices look the way they do

Because we buy in volume, hold stock in a single facility and ship directly to you, we can take 40% off list price across the catalog without cutting corners on the pieces themselves. There is no showroom rent, no seasonal markdown cycle and no inflated MSRP theater. The price on the product page is the price at checkout.

The four promises behind every order

• Free shipping on every order. No minimum spend, no handling fee, no large-item surcharge - a single accent pillow ships free, and so does a six-piece dining set.
• 1-2 business day handling. In-stock items leave our Tampa warehouse within one to two working days of your order.
• 3-5 business day delivery. Standard ground service across the 48 contiguous states, with tracking from the moment the carrier scans your parcel.
• 30-day returns and 5-7 business day refunds. If a piece does not fit your room, send it back within 30 days of delivery; refunds are issued to your original payment method within 5-7 business days of the return arriving with us.

How we curate

Every product has to answer three questions before it goes live: would we put it in our own home, does it survive normal family life, and is the price fair for the material? That is why our furniture department leans toward solid wood frames, performance fabrics, storage that actually stores something and desks that hold a real monitor. It is also why our decor department stays small and specific - accent pillows, lumbar cushions, throws and a handful of small accents, chosen to finish a room rather than fill a shelf.

Where we ship from

Everything ships from 3420 E Ellicott Street, FL 33610. That single location is why our handling window is short and why returns are simple: the same dock that ships your order receives your return.
