Sofa & Bed Delivery in Leeds

Will your sofa make the turn on a Leeds staircase?

Back-to-backs in Harehills and Beeston have a single door and a narrow staircase that turns, often with a low ceiling above the turn. A three-seater usually goes up on its end with the feet off. A one-piece double or king divan base often will not go round at all, which is why a split base is worth ordering. Mattresses flex enough to be walked up on their side, but they are never folded.

In apartment blocks the lift car decides. A corner sofa comes apart into sections, but a super king mattress on its side may not fit inside a smaller lift, and then it goes up the stairs, which takes longer. Measure the lift door and the depth of the car. Collections can be from any shop or private seller, and bed frames already in your home are taken apart and rebuilt where needed.

Measuring a sofa or bed for a Leeds home

• Measure the sofa's height, depth and diagonal, and the narrowest point on your stairs
• Harehills or Beeston back-to-back: measure the headroom over the stair turn, which is often tighter than the doorway
• City-centre or Leeds Dock flat: measure the lift door and the depth of the car before ordering a corner sofa
• Order divan bases in two halves if the staircase turns
• Feet, bolt-on arms and headboards come off and go back on; a mattress travels covered, flat or on its side, never folded
• New flat-pack beds are delivered boxed; existing bed frames are dismantled and rebuilt
