Corner sofas, divans and Burnley terrace doorways
We take off the feet and any arms or backs designed to come off, wrap the frame and turn it on end if that is what clears the door. Recliners with mechanisms are heavy, so tell us if yours has one. If the van cannot stop outside because the street is parked both sides, the sofa is carried along the pavement, which is why how close we can park matters. Ask the shop for packed dimensions too, because wrapping adds a few centimetres.
Beds are about the stairs. A split divan base goes up most terrace stairs; a solid frame usually comes apart and is rebuilt in the room, which we do for existing beds. Mattresses travel wrapped, flat or on their side, never folded. For students moving into a shared house in late summer, a single mattress and a bed frame is a small, quick job.
Measuring up for a sofa or bed in Burnley
- Measure the front door width and the gap at the top of the stairs
- In Daneshouse and Stoneyholme the front door opens straight into the room, so the sofa's depth matters more than any hall turn
- Existing beds are dismantled and rebuilt; new flat-pack beds are not assembled
- The old sofa stays with you; check what Burnley Council's bulky waste service takes
- Where your street has marked bays, a suspension through Lancashire County Council is the best way to get the van close

Sofa & Bed Delivery in Burnley: your questions
Will a corner sofa go through my terrace door?
Many come in sections, which helps. Send the dimensions and a photo of the door and we will tell you honestly.
Can you take the old sofa away?
No. We do not remove old furniture. Ask the retailer about take-back, or check what Burnley Council's bulky waste service takes.
Can you deliver a mattress to a student house share?
Yes. Tell us the room, the floor and the day you move in, and book early for late August and September. Hall rooms usually come furnished, so check with the accommodation office before buying a bed for one.
Do you deliver at weekends?
Yes, seven days, 8am to 8pm. A Saturday or Sunday slot in Burnley is booked as a planned run like any other, with the price agreed first.
