Measure the frame as well as the cushions
Give the sofa’s width, depth and height, including the highest fixed part. Explain whether cushions and legs come off and whether it contains a recliner or sofa-bed mechanism. A two-seat description alone does not establish either weight or carrying requirements. Ask the seller for measurements before agreeing transport.
Plan sofa collection at the Much Wenlock address
For sofa collection involving Much Wenlock, give the full TF13 address and the exact entrance. Use the full name Much Wenlock, Shropshire and the complete TF13 address; distinguish it from Little Wenlock, Wenlock Edge and general Ironbridge-area directions. Identify the precise historic-street, residential or rural approach, including narrow sections, gradients, gates, surface, carrying distance and a safe lawful stopping point.
Check Shropshire Council's interactive roadworks map, current closures and any required temporary restriction process and all current street signs close to the booked date. A postcode does not establish permission, vehicle suitability or a safe handover point; agree private access with the property contact and arrange any required council permission separately.
- For sofa collection, prepare: overall sofa dimensions; removable legs or sections; collection and delivery access.
- Name the actual Much Wenlock entrance and receiving contact, not merely a landmark, car park or town-centre reference.
Check the turn after the front door
The narrowest part of the route may be a hallway, stair landing or the space behind a door. Check the seller’s route out and your route in, including any lift. Do not assume removal of a door or lifting through a window is included. Describe uncertainty so handling suitability can be assessed before booking.
Send a sofa-specific request
- Name the sofa type and list each separate section.
- Confirm the seller’s available release window and who will receive delivery.
- Tell us whether the destination is a ground-floor room or upstairs.
Your Much Wenlock enquiry checklist
- For sofa collection, have these details ready: overall sofa dimensions; removable legs or sections; collection and delivery access.

- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
