East London is one of the places our mattresses are made
Buffalo City has a different relationship with Mr Mattress than most metros we deliver to. Our head office and main factory are in Bloemfontein, and we manufacture through our own and approved partner facilities in Gauteng, Cape Town and East London. That last name matters here: East London is one of the cities where our beds are actually built. We mention this as plain fact, not a sales line. There is still no walk-in store in the metro, and your order still travels the national courier network rather than coming off a local shelf, so we quote the same honest 3 to 7 working day delivery window as the rest of the country. But if you have ever wondered whether the mattress you are buying has a genuine connection to your own metro, in Buffalo City it does.
One metro from the coast to Bhisho
Buffalo City stretches from the Indian Ocean at East London, home of South Africa's only river port on the Buffalo River, inland through Mdantsane, one of the largest townships in the country, to Qonce (King William's Town) and Bhisho, the Eastern Cape's provincial capital. It is a spread-out metro, and people in Mdantsane, Qonce or Bhisho sometimes assume online delivery quotes only apply to East London itself. They do not. Our free courier delivery covers the entire metro on the same terms: same prices, same free delivery, same 365 night comfort trial.

Delivery across Buffalo City
Honesty first: we do not have a store in East London or anywhere in the Eastern Cape at the moment. We have stores across South Africa, with more opening, and Buffalo City orders are placed online and delivered free by courier. Free State customers: usually 1 to 3 working days. National orders: 3 to 7 working days depending on your area. Buffalo City falls in the national tier, so plan on 3 to 7 working days. The manufacturing presence in East London does not change that window, because orders are dispatched through the national courier network rather than collected at a factory gate, and we would rather quote the honest number than a hopeful one.

Yes. East London is one of the cities in our manufacturing network, through our own and approved partner facilities, alongside Gauteng and Cape Town, with our head office and main factory in Bloemfontein. Orders are still placed online and dispatched through the national courier network rather than collected locally.
How long does delivery to Buffalo City take?
The metro falls in our national delivery tier, so orders arrive in 3 to 7 working days depending on your area, and delivery is free. That covers the whole metro, from East London and Gonubie to Mdantsane, Qonce and Bhisho. We contact you to arrange the day.
