Will the sofa go through a Brierfield front door?

Most sofas fit through a standard door on their end or at an angle, but corner units, recliners and deep three-seaters are where it goes wrong. On the terraced streets off Colne Road and Halifax Road there is often no hall to turn in, so the sofa has to come straight off the pavement, through the door and round into the room. Measure the door width, the height and the space just inside, and compare them with the depth and height of the sofa, not just its length.

Pendle Village, in the restored mill by junction 12, has a sofas and living room department, and the van can collect from its free car park. A sofa from a private seller in Nelson or Burnley is just as straightforward: it is wrapped in blankets, strapped upright or on its back, and walked in under cover. If the feet unscrew, take them off before the day, and the legs travel in a bag taped to the frame.
