Transport
Found it on DBA?
Bring it home.
Bought furniture on DBA without a car? Arrange the seller, measurements, carrying help and delivery before booking transport in Copenhagen.
You can book Teleporter to collect furniture bought on DBA and bring it home in Copenhagen. You arrange the purchase with the seller; Teleporter provides the vehicle and the carrying help you select. Agree access and lifting at both addresses before setting the collection time.
The essentials, in brief.
- Confirm the seller and collection time.
- Measure furniture and difficult access.
- Choose carrying help at both ends.
01 · Ask the seller about the actual item
Ask the seller about the actual item
Request width, depth, height and, if known, weight. Ask whether legs or sections can be removed and whether all fittings are included. A photograph of the listing is useful, but it does not show every narrow doorway or stair turn.
Confirm the floor, lift and legal access for the van. Ask directly whether the seller will help carry. Saying that an item is available for collection does not mean that someone will bring it downstairs.
02 · Match the booking to the lifting
Match the booking to the lifting
If you and a friend do all loading and unloading, choose a driver without carrying help. Select driver assistance if you need another pair of hands, or enough helpers if you cannot carry yourself.
For a heavy sofa, send dimensions and access photos to support before booking. More helpers cannot solve every awkward stair turn. Do not promise the seller that a particular item will be removed until the practical arrangement is clear.
03 · Agree a collection that can actually happen
Agree a collection that can actually happen
Confirm the address, contact number, time and release of the furniture to the driver. If you cannot attend, give collection instructions and stay reachable. Pay the seller directly where possible; buying the item and paying for transport are separate arrangements.
Choose a time when the item is ready and someone can open at your home. Five free waiting minutes apply once at the beginning; later waiting for a seller or keys is paid task time.
04 · Check the cost before committing to the purchase
Check the cost before committing to the purchase
Local vehicle bookings have a 60-minute minimum charge, even for one item. Beyond the minimum, the chosen vehicle, help and paid duration determine the transport charge. Stairs add time rather than a separate stair fee.
Compare the whole purchase, including transport and preparation, with your alternatives. A low listing price alone does not show whether the item is a good fit for your home or budget.
Ready for moving day?
One final review.
- Confirm the seller and collection time.
- Measure furniture and difficult access.
- Choose carrying help at both ends.
- Allow for the vehicle minimum charge.
Have a good move — and a good start at your new address.
