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 around your Whitnash access
For Whitnash removals, use the full CV31 address and name Whitnash explicitly so nearby addresses are not confused. Describe any shared drive, steps or restricted turning space, and measure large furniture against the internal route. If a community building is involved, agree keyholder access and the room-to-vehicle carrying route with its operator.
Measure the item in its travel condition and the tightest doorway or turn. Ask the seller to confirm what can be dismantled and who will prepare it before collection.
- Keep Whitnash and the full CV31 address in the booking details; for shared venues name the actual receiving contact.
- For sofa collection, prepare: overall sofa dimensions; removable legs or sections; collection and delivery access.
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 Whitnash enquiry checklist
- For sofa collection, have these details ready: overall sofa dimensions; removable legs or sections; collection and delivery access.
- Give both full postcodes and identify the exact entrance and receiving point. CV31 is a location reference, not the whole service area.
- Explain any unresolved permission, timing or handling question before accepting a quote.
- Check the quote’s supplier, price, inclusions and booking terms before confirming.
