How should I prepare for my delivery?

Before ordering, we strongly advise measuring up your space to ensure your new purchase is going to fit - this helps avoid any disappointments on delivery day.

Check out our helpful measuring guide to find top tips on how to measure your space.

Once you know your new pieces are going to fit, there are a few more things you can do to prepare for a smooth delivery. Clearing the space for your new furniture to go is an obvious one - but have you also cleared room in access corridors, and removed any breakable objects our delivery experts might encounter on their route through your home? If you know you’ll need to remove any doors from their hinges to get your new sofa in, be sure to do this before your delivery, as our delivery experts won’t be able to do this for you.

Please be aware that our delivery experts are required to wear work boots for their own safety while delivering and installing your sofa. If you are worried about the possibility of dirt or marks on your flooring or carpets, we recommend covering them prior to your delivery with dust sheets or flooring protection, both of which can be found at most local hardware stores.
