How Much Does Furniture Delivery Cost? (2026 Guide)

On average, furniture delivery in the UK costs between £35 and £120 for single items. For larger moves or long-distance furniture shipping, prices typically range from £0.80 to £1.50 per mile. Smaller local jobs can often be completed from around £30.

Prices are guide estimates. Final quotes depend on exact item dimensions, weight, access and route.

Professional Furniture Courier Services for Any Item

We help customers compare quotes for almost every kind of furniture delivery — from single chairs and wardrobes to larger multi-item moves. Whether you need an IKEA furniture collection, a bespoke furniture delivery, or transport for heavy white goods, our network of furniture couriers can match the right vehicle and service level to the job.

Available vehicle options range from small transit vans for single items to tail-lift equipped HGVs for bulk consignments and business deliveries.

Sofas and Large Upholstered Furniture

Sofas, sectionals and corner units are among the most commonly moved furniture items. Many couriers offer two-man teams for safe handling through doorways and stairwells. Always measure doorways and staircase widths before booking and provide these dimensions when requesting quotes.

Wardrobes, Beds and Bedroom Furniture

Large bedroom furniture often needs partial disassembly before transport. Confirm with the courier whether they offer dismantling and reassembly as part of the service, particularly for fitted or flat-pack wardrobes. For specialist guidance on moving home see the BAR (British Association of Removers) moving guide.

White Goods and Appliances

Washing machines, fridge-freezers, tumble dryers and dishwashers require careful handling due to their weight and the risk of internal damage from movement. Couriers transporting white goods should ideally have trolleys and appropriate strapping equipment. Always confirm the courier is equipped before booking.

Pianos and Specialist Items

Pianos require specialist handling due to their weight, fragility and irregular shape. See our dedicated piano delivery services page for specialist quotes. Antiques and bespoke pieces may also require specialist couriers with appropriate insurance cover.

Two-Man Delivery and Heavy Item Transport

Heavy lifting is often the biggest challenge in furniture transport. Dedicated two-man delivery services are available for larger, awkward or delicate items that cannot be safely handled by one person. When requesting quotes, specify whether you need a two-man team and provide details of any access challenges such as stairs, narrow doorways or parking restrictions.

For very large or heavy consignments, tail-lift equipped vehicles allow items to be lowered safely to ground level without manual lifting off the vehicle. Mention this requirement when requesting quotes if your item weighs over 100kg or is unusually bulky.

IKEA and Retail Furniture Collections

Need furniture collected from an IKEA store, a furniture retailer or a showroom? Many couriers on our platform offer retail collection services, picking up directly from the store and delivering to your home. This is a cost-effective alternative to paying for retailer delivery, particularly for large or heavy items where retailer delivery charges can be high.

When requesting a quote for a retail collection, provide the store address, the item dimensions and weight if known, and your delivery address. The courier will confirm whether assembly or stair carrying is included.

How to Prepare Your Furniture for Collection

Good preparation makes the collection and delivery process smoother and reduces the risk of damage:

• Measure doorways and access points — confirm the item will fit through all doorways, stairwells and corridors at both the collection and delivery address before booking.
• Disassemble where possible — flat-packed or partially disassembled furniture is safer and easier to transport. Bag and label all fixings and hardware.
• Wrap and protect surfaces — use bubble wrap, moving blankets or cardboard to protect polished, painted or upholstered surfaces from scratches.
• Remove loose components — drawers, shelves, mirrors and glass panels should be removed and packaged separately.
• Photograph the item beforehand — take clear photos of all sides before handover. This protects you in the event of any damage claim after delivery.
• Declare access restrictions — narrow gates, no parking, steps or restricted vehicle access at either address should be communicated to the courier before booking.
