Marketplace Collection in Wakefield

Collecting a Marketplace buy for a Wakefield buyer, or from a Wakefield seller

A seller who works all day can hand over in the evening or at the weekend, and the van runs 8am to 8pm, seven days. Agree a time with the seller and tell us. If anything is wrong, it stays where it is and you are called before any money changes hands.

Ask the seller three things before booking: which floor the item is on, whether it came into the house in one piece, and how wide the narrowest door is. A sofa that went into an Agbrigg terrace in sections has to come out the same way. If you are the seller in Wakefield, clear a path to the door and have the item ready, because a long evening wait costs the buyer time.

What a Wakefield Marketplace collection needs from you

• Send the listing link or photos, the item size and both postcodes
• Tell us the seller's availability and a phone number so the time can be confirmed on the day
• The seller is paid by you, after the inspection if you prefer
• A bed or existing flat-pack unit can be unbolted at the seller's house and rebuilt in your room
• If the seller is in Flanshaw, check the exact street, because names come in pairs there, such as Rydal Drive and Rydal Crescent
• For a seller in a Belle Vue or Agbrigg terrace, ask whether the item comes out through the front door or by the back street
