What if my sofa does not fit through the door?

Dismantling is available where required for large, modular or awkward sofas.

Can you remove corner sofas and sofa beds?

Yes. We collect corner sofas, modular sofas and sofa beds. Share a photo and access details so any dismantling can be planned before collection.

The price depends on the sofa type, quantity, location, access and dismantling. We confirm the quote before collection.

How quickly can you collect my sofa?

Availability depends on your location and our current schedule. We’ll offer a suitable appointment after confirming the quote.
