What’s included
Furniture removals focus on the pieces that hurt backs and scratch paint: sofas, beds, wardrobes, dining sets and office storage. Each item is wrapped or blanketed, secured in the van and carried with two people when weight demands it. Standard beds and tables come apart when doorways or landings are tight, then go back together in the destination room.
We do not move fitted units, wall-mounted TVs with live cables, or appliances still plumbed in unless you have arranged disconnection first. Insurance is provided. Ask us what is covered when you book.
Add packing if you want mirrors boxed or loose shelves wrapped before the move.
How our service works
Photos beat guesses. Send the route from kerb to room if anything looks tight. We quote in writing with a three-month validity so you can align delivery with keys or shop collection dates.
On the day the crew protects floors on the carry path, measures turns if needed and loads heaviest items first against the cab wall. At the new address you show where each piece sits. We leave walkways clear and collect your sign-off when the list is done.
What affects the cost
Bulk and weight drive crew time. A straight ground-floor move is faster than three flights with a narrow banister. Long drives add vehicle time but not always extra hands.
If the inventory is most of a home, a house move quote is usually better value than pricing piece by piece. Tell us the full picture when you get a quote.
Furniture moves around Greater Manchester
Family homes in Didsbury often mix large sofas with tight hall turns. Stockport terraces and semis repeat the same stair puzzles with different parking. Withington student lets see regular bed and desk swaps between houses. New apartments in Ancoats may need lift padding and a booked slot.
See our Manchester removals page for how furniture work links to full house, flat and man and van services.
Shops, donations and second stops
Collection from a retailer counts as a furniture job when you send dimensions and whether the store will help load. We can combine a shop pickup with delivery home if both fit the quoted window. Donation runs are only included when agreed in writing; otherwise we move between the two addresses on your quote. Two-stop days need everything measured so the van is loaded once, safely, with the heaviest pieces secured first.
What affects the cost
Item size and weight
Corner sofas, American fridges and solid oak tables need more time than a lightweight desk.
Stairs and turns
A narrow Victorian stairwell can mean dismantling or a window hoist arranged by others.
Distance
A cross-city run is simple to plan. A long-distance delivery needs a different vehicle schedule.
Number of items
One wardrobe is a short job. A whole house of furniture is quoted as a house move.
Extra services
Packing mirrors, crating art or removing old furniture from site is priced separately.

Furniture removals FAQs
Can you move one item only?
Yes. Many jobs are a sofa, bed or wardrobe between two addresses or from a shop to your home.
Will you take doors off hinges?
We remove standard internal doors when needed for clearance and refit them afterwards if the fixings allow.
Do you move flat-pack furniture assembled?
Yes when it is stable. We may ask to lay wardrobes on their side or strap shelves to prevent twist.
What about marble or glass?
Tell us when you book. Extra padding and carry planning may apply, and cover limits should be checked.
Can you dispose of my old sofa?
Only if we agreed disposal in advance. Otherwise we move what you list to the new address.
