Appliance Delivery in Leeds

Getting a washer into a Leeds back-to-back or a riverside block

In the inner-city terraces of Harehills, Beeston and Armley the question is the route from the kerb to the kitchen. A back-to-back has one door, so the machine comes through the front room, and there may be a step or two down at the far end. A through terrace sometimes has a yard door off the back street, which can be the shorter carry. A photo of the front step and the kitchen doorway settles which way in before the van sets off.

Apartments at Granary Wharf, Leeds Dock and around Holbeck Urban Village are an arrangement job more than a lifting one. The building manager usually wants the goods lift booked and may ask for insurance details first; public liability is £5 million. Measure the appliance's height, width and depth against the lift car and the flat door, and send the figures before the day so the route in is settled early. American-style and other tall fridge freezers are not moved.

Before a fridge or washer comes to your Leeds address

• Washing machine: water off, hoses drained, and the transit bolts refitted if you still have them
• The machine is delivered to the kitchen, not connected: plumbing it in is for you or a plumber, electrics for an electrician and gas cookers for a Gas Safe engineer
• Fridges and freezers should be defrosted and emptied the day before, then left standing for a few hours after delivery
• Harehills or Beeston back-to-back: measure the front door and the kitchen doorway, because the appliance crosses the front room
• City-centre or Holbeck block: book the goods lift and tell us which entrance the building wants deliveries through
• Bought at Crown Point or Kirkstall Bridge? Send the order number and the store's collection-point details

What moves the price of a Leeds appliance delivery

Access sets it: the steps or floors, whether a lift has to be booked, and how far the appliance travels from where the van can legally stop. The ten or so miles from Bradford carry no travel surcharge. See how we quote for the full breakdown.
