Getting Furniture Delivered in Spain

Arrange a furniture delivery, deal with the stairs and check everything before you sign.

Furniture shops in Spain give you a franja horaria, a delivery window, and the driver usually calls before arriving. In older buildings without a lift, ask whether they carry it upstairs. You sign the albarán, the delivery note, and anything damaged should be written on it before signing. The cards follow a new sofa and bed from the shop to a fifth-floor flat in Alicante.
