The problem: sofa in a canal house
Collecting a sofa in a canal house is trickier in practice than it sounds. The item has to follow the same route as always, just without the usual tools on hand. Anyone trying this themselves runs into trouble quickly: too little room to turn, no proper grip, or simply not enough people to share the weight. Exactly those kinds of obstacles turn an otherwise simple job into one that drags on, or causes damage to the item, the walls or the stairwell.
Why this is difficult
A sofa also weighs quite a bit, which makes the situation extra tricky. This item usually goes out in one piece, but that makes it just as tricky to get a proper grip and carry it in this situation. The lack of the right equipment is often the main reason people end up outsourcing this after all.
Our solution
At MeubelsLatenOphalen.nl this is exactly the kind of situation we deal with every day. We assess from a photo whether disassembly or extra equipment is needed, before we even arrive. For a sofa, that means you don't have to figure out everything involved yourself: you send a photo, we assess the situation, and you receive a concrete price and approach within 10 minutes.
