Stockport sofa shoppers usually end up at the Trafford Centre or driving into Manchester city centre. Both are fine for browsing. Neither solves the actual problem. You find a sofa you like, sit on it, and they tell you it's eight to twelve weeks until delivery.
Alec's is different. We're an independent clearance warehouse on the edge of Bolton, around 35 minutes from Stockport via the M60. Closer from the Heatons and Reddish. A similar drive from Bramhall or Hazel Grove. We hold over 500 sofas in stock at any one time, all priced for value and ready to leave the same day you choose them. New stock arrives every week from cancelled orders, ex-display showroom models, and surplus lines from the same UK manufacturers who supply John Lewis, DFS, SCS and Sofology.
What you see is what's here. What you pay is what's on the ticket. If you can pop in this week, your new sofa is in your living room by Saturday.
A live snapshot of the most recent stock through the warehouse door. Anything you see here can be in a Stockport home within days, often same-day if booked early.
Every category is in stock today and ready for delivery to Stockport, Bramhall, Cheadle, the Heatons and beyond.
Six things people from Bramhall, the Heatons and Marple tell us when they walk through the door for the first time.
From the Heatons or Reddish we're a 25-minute drive. From Bramhall, Cheadle or Hazel Grove around 35 to 40. Up the M60, free parking, no congestion charge.
Everything you see is here today. Same-day delivery available across SK postcodes when booked before midday. No factory waits, no shipping delays.
Bay windows, narrow halls, awkward stair turns, period property quirks. We deliver into the Heatons most weeks. Most of our sofas split for tricky doorways.
Stock from the same factories that supply John Lewis, DFS and SCS. Real discount, no inflated tickets, no finance smoke and mirrors.

From Stockport, the M60 takes you anti-clockwise to Junction 14. From there the M61 brings you straight to Bolton in around 25 minutes. From the Heatons or Reddish it's a shorter drive than the Trafford Centre.
Real questions from real customers. If yours is not here, ring us.
Around 35 minutes from Stockport town centre via the M60 anti-clockwise to Junction 14, then the M61 straight to Bolton. From the Heatons or Reddish it's a shorter run, closer to 25 minutes. From Bramhall, Cheadle or Hazel Grove it's a similar trip to driving into Manchester city centre. Free parking on site.
Yes, on most stock items if booked early in the day. Pick a sofa before midday and we will plan an SK-postcode run for the afternoon or early evening where we can. Stockport runs are common for us so the routing is usually straightforward, even out to Marple or Disley.
All SK postcodes from SK1 through SK8, plus SK12 covering Poynton and Disley, and parts of SK14 and SK22 covering Hyde, New Mills and into the High Peak edge. If your road is unusual or you're in a less common SK area, message us and we will confirm.
Yes. The Heatons are part of our regular run. Bay windows, narrow halls, awkward stair turns, original Edwardian doorways that are tighter than modern builds. We've seen them all. Tell us the narrowest doorway, the tightest turn, and ideally a photo of the access route. Many of our sofas split into sections or have removable feet. We will plan for it.
Yes. We hold a regular selection of sofas designed with awkward access in mind. Sectional corner sofas that come apart, slim arm two seaters, chaise sofas in components, and 3 piece suites in matching individual pieces. Stockport has a lot of period homes with tight access, so this comes up most weeks.
Yes. Large four and five seater corner sofas, full 3 piece suites with armchair sets, and oversized chaise sofas all feature regularly. If you've got a generous lounge in a Bramhall, Cheadle Hulme or Woodford home, we have plenty of options that fill the space without looking lost. Bring rough room dimensions and we will steer you towards what fits.
Yes. Marple, Marple Bridge, Romiley, Disley, Poynton and out into New Mills are all part of our usual runs. Delivery time from Bolton is around 50 minutes for those areas. If you're further into the High Peak proper, send us your postcode and we will confirm what we can do.
The Trafford Centre has the polish, the food court, and the parking experience for browsing. We have the stock you can take home today, prices that don't move based on what month it is, and no commission salespeople. The drive from Stockport is a similar 30 to 40 minutes either way, but with us you leave with a sofa, not a 12-week order confirmation.
In many cases, yes for a short period. Stock moves fast on popular pieces, especially the ex-display ones. Best approach is to send the measurements over the same day so we can confirm fit and lock it in. For period properties with bay windows, also measure the bay opening if the sofa is going against that wall.
The narrowest doorway, the tightest hallway turn, and any stair head clearance if it's going upstairs. A quick photo of the access route helps too. Many of our sofas split into sections to fit. For Heatons-style period properties, measure the depth of any bay window if that's where the sofa is sitting.
Yes, for a small charge that covers the local refuse centre disposal cost. Mention it when booking the delivery slot so we can plan the van capacity properly, especially if you're upstairs in a tight Heatons terrace.
Yes. Clearance beds and pocket spring mattresses from Silentnight, Sealy, Sweet Dreams and others. Up to 70% below high street RRP. Same delivery service, same SK postcode coverage.
Yes. Every sofa supplied meets UK domestic fire safety regulations and carries the required permanent labelling. Happy to show you the labels in person if you want to check before buying.
No, we have one warehouse in Bolton and that's where the stock lives. Around 35 minutes from Stockport via the M60. Free parking, open seven days. Most Stockport customers find the drive worth it once they see the stock and prices, especially given the alternative is a 12-week wait at the chains.
New stock, customer photos, behind-the-scenes from the Bolton floor. The fastest way to see what is in if you are not ready to drive over yet.
Around 35 minutes from any SK postcode. 500+ sofas in stock. Same-day delivery from Bramhall to Marple, Cheadle to the Heatons. Opening at 9am today.
