Sewing machine pickup and delivery.
A sewing machine collected from a seller, shop or service appointment.
A sewing machine can be compact but still heavier than it looks. Send the actual weight, case size and any access details so I can check one-person handling. Suitable machines can be collected after purchase, taken to a repairer or returned once servicing is complete.
Ask about this pickupBefore the pickup.
Please include:
- The machine’s weight and outside case measurements
- Appropriate protection and loose accessories secured
- The seller or repair shop’s handoff instructions
It needs to fit inside my SUV and be safe for me to carry on my own. A few photos, the measurements and a note about any stairs help me plan the pickup.
Tell me if there’s a cabinet or table too.
Tell me if the purchase includes a separate table, cabinet or attachment. Include photos and dimensions for every part, rather than just the machine model. Arrange the service or sale directly with the shop, then confirm that it is ready for your driver to collect.
A few things to know.
Can you transport an older heavy machine?
Send the actual weight and access details. It must be safe for one person to carry at both addresses.
Can you take a machine for servicing?
Yes, if the repairer has agreed to receive it and the machine is suitable for transport.
Is the sewing cabinet included?
Only if it is listed and agreed beforehand. Its separate size, weight and handling need to be checked.

Back to your pickup detailsHow much will it cost?
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
