Furniture Delivery & Large Item Transport in Barrowford

Large pieces through small Barrowford doorways

The awkward part in Barrowford is usually the house, not the distance. A stone cottage on Gisburn Road has a low front door, a narrow hall and a boxed-in stair, and a wardrobe or a dresser that went into a showroom easily may not turn the corner on the landing. Measure the narrowest point and send the dimensions of the piece; if it comes apart, the driver can take the doors and top off, carry it up and put it back together. The van waits on a side street, as the A682 has no room to stop outside.

On the closes off Wheatley Lane Road and at Keld, the van backs onto the drive or stops at the kerb outside, and doorways are wider. Big items for the house and garden come from the trade counters at Reedyford, just over the boundary in Nelson, from stores across Pendle and Burnley, or from shops further afield in Bradford and Leeds on the same run over the tops.

Before a large item comes to your Barrowford door

• Measure the front door, the hall and the tightest stair turn, and compare them with the piece
• Ask the shop whether the item is boxed or assembled, and whether it can be collected on the day you book
• Say if it must go upstairs, so the carry is counted in from the start
• Clear a path inside the house before the van arrives
• Existing flat-pack furniture can be taken down and rebuilt; new flat-pack stays in its box
