FAQs — Furniture Pickup in Melbourne

Common questions about using a trailer for furniture pickup.

What trailer is best for picking up IKEA furniture?
A box trailer works well for most IKEA flat-pack items. For larger pieces like beds, sofas, or wardrobe systems, check the dimensions against the trailer's internal size before booking.
Can I fit a couch in a trailer?
Most standard couches fit in a 7x4 or 8x5 box or cage trailer. Measure your sofa's length and height to confirm — TrailerConnect listings show trailer dimensions where available.
Is a trailer safer than a ute tray for furniture?
A box or enclosed trailer gives better weather and road-debris protection than an open ute tray. For delicate or high-value pieces, enclosed trailers are the safest option.
