Not sure if you still post but was looking through old threads on here as wanted to find the name of the removal company I had reccomended (I forgot what they were called!) anyway saw on your thread you said that you used them the 2nd time, thats great really pleased they worked out for you.
We are going to use them again to get an old sofa from friends to my sisters for her to use, and my sofa thats being stored in my sisters flat round to my flat - sisters flats 4th floor...good luck guys! It was them that got it up ther ein first place so sure will be fine, they make it look effortless.
(Anyone noseying and wondering who I mean its these guys - here )
