Last updated: January 2026
When ordering a bed or mattress, many customers want to know whether delivery can be made to a specific room, including an upstairs bedroom. In most cases, room of choice delivery is possible, but it depends on safe and suitable access.
This guide explains how room of choice and upstairs delivery works at Land of Beds, what access requirements need to be met, and what to consider before delivery day. If you are planning where your new bed or mattress will go, this article should help you understand what to expect.
What is room of choice delivery?
Room of choice delivery means your items are delivered into a specific room in your home, rather than being left at the front door.
This service is available for many beds and mattresses, subject to:
- Safe access to the room
- Suitable staircases, hallways, and doorways
- The delivery services booked with your order
Room of choice delivery helps ensure large items are placed where you need them, where access allows.
Can you deliver upstairs?
Yes, delivery to an upstairs room is usually possible as part of room of choice delivery, provided access is safe and suitable.
Upstairs delivery depends on factors such as:
- Stair width and height
- Tight turns or low ceilings
- The size and weight of the items being delivered
If access is restricted or unsafe, the delivery team may not be able to carry items upstairs.
What access is required for room of choice delivery?
To deliver beds and mattresses safely, the delivery team needs clear and suitable access throughout your home.
Before delivery, it is important to check:
- Doorway widths
- Hallways and staircases
- Turns, landings, and ceiling height
- Lift availability in flats or apartments
If items cannot be moved safely through the property, delivery to the chosen room may not be possible. More detailed requirements are explained in our property access requirements guide.
Will the delivery team move furniture?
Delivery teams are not able to move existing furniture that is not part of your order.
You will need to make sure:
- Pathways are clear
- Furniture is moved in advance
- Fragile items are removed from walkways
This helps ensure delivery can be completed safely and without delay. For a full overview of what the delivery team will and will not do, see what will the delivery team do on delivery day.
What happens if access is not suitable on the day?
If the delivery team arrives and access is not safe or suitable, they may not be able to complete room of choice or upstairs delivery.
In this situation:
- Items may be delivered to an alternative accessible location, where possible
- Or delivery may need to be rearranged
If delivery cannot be completed as planned, our customer care team can explain what happens next and help arrange a solution.
How can I check access before delivery?
If you are unsure whether access will be suitable, it is a good idea to:
- Measure doorways, staircases, and tight spaces
- Consider how large items will be moved through the property
- Contact our customer care team for advice before delivery
Checking access in advance can help avoid delays or re-delivery, and reviewing the measurements and space you need to check before delivery can help you prepare with confidence.
