Stairs, shared doors and one van load out of a Pudsey flat

A one-bed flat usually fits one load in a van with 3.4m of floor, and the time goes on the stairs. An upper flat in a split terrace often has its own narrow staircase straight up from the door, with no landing to turn a sofa on. Flats above shops can have the stair at the back, reached through a yard or an alley. Tell us which kind you are in and the carry can be planned before the day.

The other thing to settle is who else uses the door. In a converted mill or a shared-hall conversion, your neighbours need to get in and out while furniture is coming down, and some buildings want notice or a booked slot for moves. Check your tenancy or the managing agent's rules, and let us know if a lift has to be reserved or protected.

Planning a flat move out of Pudsey or Farsley

Send a photo of the staircase from the bottom looking up; the first turn decides whether a sofa goes down whole
In the tall council block west of Farsley's Town Street, tell us the floor and whether the lift is working, and reserve it with the building if that is possible
Beds and existing flat-pack are dismantled and rebuilt where needed, with the fixings bagged and labelled
Pudsey Market trades on Tuesdays and Fridays, so a flat over a Market Square shop is easier to load on another weekday
The van stands on the street near your door rather than in a car park, and at about 2.5m tall it will not clear a height barrier

What sets the price of a Pudsey flat move

The fixed price follows the floors, the length of the carry to where the van can stand and the amount in the flat, not the distance, since Pudsey is inside the core area with no travel surcharge. See how we quote for the full breakdown.
