Up the hill from the store and into a stone house

Most furniture for Meltham comes from somewhere lower down: Huddersfield, Leeds or a warehouse over the Pennines. Big chains hand goods over against an order reference and photo ID, and a wardrobe bought flat can arrive as four or five long cartons, which the van's 3.4m floor takes lying flat. Send the reference and the window you were given at checkout.

Then comes the doorway. In the stone houses around Market Place the front door often opens straight into the living room or a slim passage, and the stair to the bedrooms turns tightly, so check a solid piece against both before ordering. On the estate roads, such as Windermere Road or Highfield Road, the walk is shorter and the hall wider. Cartons of new flat-pack are left boxed for you to assemble, while pieces you already own can be dismantled and rebuilt as part of a move.

Getting new furniture into a Meltham home

Compare the carton sizes on the order with your doorway and the narrowest turn of the stair
Have the order reference and the name it was bought under to hand for the collection desk
Point out the room each piece is for, so it ends up there and not on the step
On a one-way street in the centre, give the house number so the van stops on your side
Lift rugs and move anything fragile from the passage before the van arrives
