How To Prepare For Your Furniture Delivery

When it comes to buying new furniture, many consider style, price, comfort etc. But once the deal is done and your purchase has been complete, it may only hit you then that you never gave any thought to the whole delivery process. It helps to be prepared for this in order to prevent any problematic issues which may arise on the arrival of your new furniture. Whether it be a new bed, sofa, table and chairs, here at Bigmickey.ie, we want to ensure the smoothest delivery process for getting your new furniture placed inside your home.

Here are a few things you can do to prepare for your furniture delivery:

Size and measurements:

First of all, you will need to take some specific measurements to ensure that your new piece of furniture fits through any entryways in your home. This will include doors, hallways and also stairways, if the furniture is been placed upstairs in your home. You will also want to make sure that the item is an appropriate size for the area in which it is been placed i.e. that it will not cause an obstruction to any passageways or other pieces of furniture.

How will you get it into your house?

You will need to consider the best route for getting the furniture to where you want it to go. Make sure the area is clear and easily accessible for the delivery staff. Protect your belongings by taking down any pictures or wall hangings which may lie in the path of the delivery man. If the item is particularly bulky or heavy, you may need to have an extra person on standby to assist the delivery man in lifting the piece of furniture into the house. You will also need to consider this if your home contains any tricky stairways or awkward entryways.

Will you need help assembling the furniture?

It helps to ask if the item you have purchased needs assembling. Nowadays, a lot of furniture comes flat packed and can require a little time and effort in putting it together. If you don’t have the right tools, strength, or assistance, don’t hesitate to ask us for a quotation for assembly.
