Time on Site

 

Most single‑sofa removals take 30–90 minutes on site; return delivery typically adds 30–90 minutes. Factors that extend time include narrow doorways, tight staircases, dismantling/reassembly, heavy traffic and waiting for parking permits

 

Questions to Ask Your Tradie

 

• are you insured and do you carry public liability and goods in transit cover

• how many operatives and what vehicle size will you send

• do you include dismantling, reassembly and floor protection in the quote

• are there extra charges for stairs, long carries or return trips

• can you provide a written quote and a waste transfer note if you dispose of the sofa

• what is your availability for the return delivery and do you guarantee time slots

 

How to Avoid Surprises

 

• measure sofa and doorways and send dimensions to the tradie before booking

• clear access routes and reserve parking or arrange permits for the vehicle

• declare any pest, mould or heavy staining so operatives bring appropriate PPE

• check building rules for working hours, lifts and corridor protection in flats

• ask for a written quote that lists return trip costs and disposal fees
