Appliance Delivery in Baildon

Strapping a washing machine for the Browgate climb into Baildon

A washing machine is heavy for its size and has nothing to grip, so on the steep pull from Otley Road up to the Browgate roundabout it is strapped tight to the side of the van rather than wedged among softer things. Tall and American-style fridge freezers are not moved, so they are best left to the retailer. Once in the old village, the streets around Towngate, Westgate and Northgate are narrow and closely parked, so the machine often finishes its trip on the trolley from wherever the van can legally stop.

Lower Baildon is simpler. Semis and newer houses around Hoyle Court and Tong Park usually have a drive or side access, so an appliance goes almost straight to the back door. Older stone cottages in the village sometimes have a step up from the pavement and a narrow kitchen door, so measure that door and the gap the appliance is going into before the day rather than after it arrives.

Getting a Baildon kitchen ready for a new appliance

• Water off, hoses drained and plug out before the van arrives, with transit bolts back in if you kept them
• The machine is delivered and set in its space; the driver does not plumb it in, so book a plumber or do it yourself, and leave gas or hard-wired items to a qualified fitter
• For a cottage on Northgate or Westgate, measure the step and the kitchen door against the width of the new machine, since older stone doorways can be tight
• Old machines stay with you, so ask the retailer about take-back when you order the new one
• If the house sits on Towngate with no space outside, say so: the trolley run from the nearest legal stop is planned in, not discovered on the day
