Furniture Delivery in Morley

Built or boxed: getting furniture into a Morley bedroom

Most Morley furniture comes from close by. IKEA on Holden Ing Way and Birstall Shopping Park sit by M62 Junction 27, a few minutes from Gildersome and Bruntcliffe, and trade units at Treefield on Gelderd Road or Leeds 27 on Bruntcliffe Avenue are nearer still, so the drive is the small part of the job. The store end needs the order reference and the buyer's name, and it is worth asking whether someone collecting for you needs ID or a signed note. The home end is where the time goes: Morley is built on seven hills, many older stone terraces have no road behind them, and the van may stand a few doors along wherever the kerb is clear.

Then comes the staircase. Boxes go up anywhere, but a built chest of drawers or wardrobe has to clear the bend at the top of a terrace stair, often under a low ceiling. Measure the diagonal of the piece and the width at that turn, and send a photo looking up from the bottom step, so you know before it is collected whether it will make it. The larger stone houses round Dartmouth Park and the Churwell semis tend to have roomier landings. Boxed flat-pack is left unopened in the room you pick, because building new flat-pack is not part of the service, while a bed or wardrobe you already own can be taken apart at a parent's house in Leeds or Batley and rebuilt in Morley.

Measuring up a Morley house before buying a big piece

• Measure the width at the tightest stair turn, often the bend at the top of an older terrace, and compare it with the piece's diagonal depth
• If your terrace sits on one of the steep streets, count the steps from the pavement up to the front door
• For IKEA on Holden Ing Way or a Birstall Shopping Park store, forward the order confirmation and check the rules on someone else collecting
• A flat over a Queen Street shop is reached from Commercial Street or a side street, since the middle of Queen Street is closed to traffic; say which door the stairs start from
• Buying from a unit at Treefield or Leeds 27 on Bruntcliffe Avenue? Send the unit name and the hours goods-out is open
• If the new piece replaces one that has to shift to another room or the cellar first, say so before the day
