Sofa & Bed Delivery in Hebden Bridge

Three-seaters up outdoor stone stairs and beds into Hebden Bridge attics

Outdoor steps in the valley are often narrow, with a rail on one side and a wall on the other, and they turn where the hillside turns. A sofa goes up them wrapped and on its end, one step at a time. That takes longer than a level path but is straightforward if the steps are wider than the sofa is deep. Modular and corner sofas are far easier than a fixed three-seater, so if you are still choosing, the one that unclips into sections is the safer buy for a house on the hillside.

Bedrooms in the older houses are often at the top of a winding stair, or in an attic room under a sloping ceiling. A divan ordered as two half-bases, rather than one solid base, is what gets up there. Wooden and metal frames you already own are unbolted and rebuilt upstairs. Mattresses stay flat or stand on one edge inside a cover, because bending one to get round a corner damages it. A heavy pocket-sprung king goes up slowly, on its side.

Sofa and bed measurements worth taking in Hebden Bridge

• Sofa depth and height with the feet unscrewed, against the width of the outside steps and the front door
• Headroom where the inside stair turns, and the width of the landing at the top
• Whether the steps run up or down from where the van can stop, and roughly how many there are
• A split divan base if the bedroom is up a winding stair or in the attic
• On the Birchcliffe and Heptonstall Road terraces, measure the gap between the step rail and the wall, as that is often narrower than the door
• Beds you already own are unbolted at the old address and rebuilt at the new one
