Measure your hallways and internal doors

If your front door doesn’t lead directly into your living room, your new sofa might also need to be manoeuvred through your home. This means you’ll want to measure the width of any hallways (C) and internal doors (D) that it will pass through at their narrowest points. You’ll also need to keep an eye out for any obstructions that might get in the way, such as radiators, shelving, and other pieces of furniture that can’t be moved.

If all of your measurements exceed the height of your sofa, it should be easy enough to transport through your home.
