The delivery driver will not be able to carry the furniture up or down steps, carry the furniture through a property, wheel the pallet across a gravel driveway or up particularly steep driveways. Unfortunately, the delivery driver will be unable to remove items from the pallet or take the pallet away with them. The driver may only be able to wheel the pallet as far as physically possible which may even be the kerbside. If the driver agrees on request by the customer to move the goods beyond the kerbside then the customer accepts responsibility of any damage or injury incurred.

You can nominate a neighbour/designated person to receive the delivery on your behalf, however this must be arranged before delivery is dispatched by email confirmation.
