Frequently Asked Questions

What if my furniture is just slightly too big?

Consider if the furniture can be disassembled, if door frames can be temporarily removed, or if alternative delivery routes (windows, patio doors) are available.

How much clearance do I really need around furniture?

Minimum 18" for basic access, 24" for comfortable walking, and 30-36" for spacious feel. Consider how the space will be used and traffic patterns.

What should I do if delivery isn't possible?

Options include: professional hoisting through windows, disassembly/reassembly, purchasing smaller pieces, or choosing different furniture that fits your space constraints.

Are there tools to help measure my space?

Use a measuring tape for accuracy, smartphone apps for room layout, and consider hiring professional movers for complex deliveries. Always measure in multiple places as rooms aren't always perfectly square.

What's the difference between furniture dimensions and packaging dimensions?

Furniture dimensions are the actual size when assembled. Packaging dimensions are often larger due to protective materials. Always use assembled dimensions for room fit calculations.

How do I measure odd-shaped furniture like sectional sofas?

Measure the longest and widest points of the furniture. For L-shaped pieces, consider each section separately and plan the delivery path for the largest component.

Should I factor in rug size when calculating furniture placement?

Yes, rugs affect traffic flow. Standard practice: rug should be 18-24" larger than furniture grouping on all sides, or all furniture legs should sit on the rug.

What if my ceiling has sloped or angled sections?

Measure the lowest point of the ceiling where furniture will be placed. Consider furniture with varying heights or adjustable components for sloped ceilings.
