Where the van stops at a Chorley seller's door
On the terraces east of the railway, the van pulls into whatever space the parked cars leave and wheels the item along the pavement. The short cobbled rows off Park Road, such as Hope Street, Park Street and Vine Street, are narrow with parked cars, so the van waits at the end on Park Road side and the trolley does the rest. Ask the seller whether the item has already been brought downstairs, as it changes how long the pick-up takes.
On Buckshaw Village and in Astley Village the seller usually has a drive, and the van pulls up beside the door. New estate roads can look alike, so the full address and house number help. Check with the seller that the item matches the listing and that it has been paid for before the van arrives, so the pick-up is simply a matter of loading.
Before a Chorley Marketplace pick-up
- Send the listing, or the item's size and a photo
- Agree a collection time when the seller is at home
- Ask whether the item is downstairs or still in an upstairs room
- Settle payment with the seller before the van arrives
- Check whether it comes apart, such as bed frames and some wardrobes

Marketplace Collection in Chorley: your questions
Will you pick up a Facebook Marketplace buy from a Chorley seller?
Yes. Send the listing or a photo, the seller's address and yours, and when the seller is home.
Can you bring a wardrobe down from an upstairs room at the seller's?
Yes, and if it comes apart it is taken down in pieces and rebuilt at your end. Say it is upstairs when you book, as the carry is part of the price.
What if the item is not as described?
It stays with the seller, so ask for clear photos before you buy.
Can you collect from a seller in Preston or Bolton and bring it to Chorley?
Yes. Preston is about 11 miles up the M61 and Bolton about 15 miles down it, and the fixed price covers the extra miles to the seller's door.
