Will the new sofa clear a South Kirkby front door?
Many estate houses at Northfield, Hague Park and Hill Top Estate have a porch or a front door straight into the lounge, which is easy for a two-seater and awkward for a corner group. The older houses near Towngate, Church View and Clock Row can have a narrow hall with the stairs straight ahead. Measure the door width, the hall, and the diagonal of the sofa frame before ordering, and the delivery date is far less of a worry.
Beds are simpler. A divan base and headboard go up most stairs on their side, and a bed frame comes apart. Mattresses travel flat or on their side and are never folded. If the sofa is going upstairs into a converted flat on Barnsley Road, send a photo of the turn at the top, because that is the spot where a three-seater meets its match.

Sofa & Bed Delivery in South Kirkby: your questions
Will you take the old sofa away?
No, the van does not carry old furniture off. The council's household waste recycling centre on Brigantian Way takes bulky items from residents with a permit, or book its bulky item collection.
Can a corner sofa fit through a South Kirkby front door?
Usually in sections. Measure the door and the hall, and check how the sofa splits, before you buy.
Do mattresses get folded?
Never. A mattress travels flat or on its side, wrapped, and is carried straight to the bedroom.
