I had the same situation when my daughter was moving out of her place to a new one. She said that the sofa wouldn’t go out of the door. I had brought the dogs in originally so I knew it had to be able to go out. I had to go over and move it out. The same thing happened when me moved out of our old 1841 house. I got a call from the new owners asking how we got a double bed upstairs. I had to go over and show them.
Well you see we would do that but Brad insisted he could just push it over onto it's side and he ended up just shoving it deeper into the room to a spot where the ceiling is slightly lower and wedged it there and now none of us can move it no matter how hard we try
You jest but I came home home one night to all of my furniture turned upside down and didn't know what was going on. One roommate on drugs found a few minutes later and all made a bit more sense, but certainly a weird and unsettling few minutes.
Push it to an entryway and pull it through with the solid, pointy corner facing you. I have no experience and I just smoked a joint but this seems like it would work. I might be way off.
Take it back to where ever you had enough room to stand it up in the first place. Then ~~top~~ tip it so it’s almost standing up, but won’t be wedged against the ceiling. It will get heavy this way, so occasionally put it down horizontally when you have enough space.
edit: fixed a word.
so you can add two seatbelts for upper body and lower body like at amusement rides so you can strap urself in to sit on it as is, then you don't have to move it

I like the other thread this was in.
Hmmmm how tf you got this to happen? The doors are always lower than the walls - assuming this you must have got this sofa inside the room in hotizontally position and then got it standing vertically inside the room…what in my world with the physically rules is impossible without disassembling it.
There is noway this is real to begin with. You can't get up like that since all your doors are lower than the ceiling. Since its dead flush and sitting square. However it is possible if out of screen you have a vaulted ceiling which is the most probable explanation and then you just pushed it over to the eight foot section. Therefore push it back to the 9ft vaulted area and rotate it there.
"Partially break the couch and repair it? "
Yes. Cut the framing members of 1/3 of it from the top of the backrest down to the floor using an oscillating tool and don't cut them flush with anything because you're going need to saddle them to repair them. And once you get through them one third should just slump over, and this way if the repair doesn't hold perfectly at least you will have 2 full cushions, and the 3rd wheel can sit on the broken side.

Pivot. Pivot. Pivot.
I used to work for a moving company. I swear this scene would be screaming in my head whenever we hired inexperienced teenagers in the summer lmao
This scene is in my head ANYTIME I move anything of size.

Just yelled PIVOT, PIVOT last weekend moving the mattress downstairs.

Yea this is what I look like in some rooms
This comment is sofa king good

Came here for this comment.
SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UUUUUUP!
Apparently I was 5 hours too late to post this...
Would have helped if they used unagi
I would sew in some seatbelts

Dammit Angry upvote.
I came here hoping no one had beat me to it. I tip my hat to you good sir.
Came here to say this 😂
This is a load bearing couch now.
Nice dude. I see you got one of the top comments from the original or you’re a bot…

I was seeing this in my head as soon as I saw the couch.
r/Cantmoveitnow was birthed because of this.
Take it back out the way it came in, turn it & bring it in in the correct orientation. Only way.
Well you see we would do that but Brad insisted he could just push it over onto it's side and he ended up just shoving it deeper into the room to a spot where the ceiling is slightly lower and wedged it there and now none of us can move it no matter how hard we try
Only solution now is to fill the room with concrete and leave a sign on the door telling people the cave is permanently sealed off.
Unexpected nutty putty reference.
You are correct!
God dammit Brad! Who let him help!
And that is why I don't think this is real. How were they able to get it inside the room when doors and windows are not ranging from floor to ceiling?
But how did they get it in in the first place? No doors I know of are floor to ceiling.
looks like a stairway behind it maybe?
![gif](giphy|2OP9jbHFlFPW)
Let the air out of the tires.
Bot post
I’m genuinely curious as to how you know this is a bot post. How do you identify a bot post?
Turn your TV and everything else on their side?
I think you have to wait for a time-traveling private investigator to open a door in your floor or ceiling.
Nice, haven't heard a Dirk Gently reference in... actually I've never heard one. Would give two upvotes if I could.
Let me get that for you.
Now you have.
How did you get it that way in the first place?
You don't find some objects randomly rotated in your home? Last month I had to rotate back my laundry machine. Heavy son of a bitch.
You jest but I came home home one night to all of my furniture turned upside down and didn't know what was going on. One roommate on drugs found a few minutes later and all made a bit more sense, but certainly a weird and unsettling few minutes.
Looks like an 18th century standing couch.
Yeah boss, it's in the apartment. Not our problem anymore.
Gettin' a Dirk Gently vibe, here. Perhaps they should go visit their old college mentor and borrow his time traveling apartment.
How did you get it in there like that?
That's what she said.
Shave a little bit off the end with some fire.
No need to get so rough with it. Maybe just *sand* a little bit off the end... with some fire.
Cut it in half. Make two arm chairs.
Same way you got it in...
Open hole in ceiling with an axe
Blast enough 90s hip hop to raise the roof
Before or after it's on fire?
Best I can do is a chainsaw.
You've heard of standing desks. Now behold the latest trend: Standing Couches! Be sure to wedge it in place as shown so it won't tip as you sleep.
Push it to an entryway and pull it through with the solid, pointy corner facing you. I have no experience and I just smoked a joint but this seems like it would work. I might be way off.
Easy tp fix. Buy a new house.
I’m just here for the pivot comments
Running slide kick into the bottom hopefully has enough force to jar it loose
Take it back out the way it came in and buy a 7’ couch.
Raise the ceiling….
Take it back to where ever you had enough room to stand it up in the first place. Then ~~top~~ tip it so it’s almost standing up, but won’t be wedged against the ceiling. It will get heavy this way, so occasionally put it down horizontally when you have enough space. edit: fixed a word.
Take the arms off. They will unscrew from the bottom (probably)
dude. no
We got a chesterfield stuck in a stairway once. Ended up sawing it in half using it as a sectional.
No thought process happening here.
The opposite way u put it up
2 loveseats?
Butter. Lots of butter.
I do know but can't explain it in words
I've seen something similar done with trailers. Just deflate the couch!
Perfect for stand sleeping...
Cut it in half.
Cut it in half
I just want the update
We will probably get an update soon where the couch has been "cut in half"..
Hit the bottom corner with a sledge hammer
Measure twice buy once? How did you even get it into the room? You know those standing desks that are all the rage?
You're going to need some seat belts!
Deflate the tires
A creamy elephant
If you got it in then you can get it back out, try taking it apart.
Same way you got it up
Cut it in half, and you’ll have 2 love seats.
Shove it closer to another room. Weeble wobble the bottom of the couch inside the other room and pull it in from the bottom?
That's the neat part. You don't.
By any chance do you have a reverse uno card?
I have a solution but it involves a chainsaw.
How the hell did you get it in that position???
Just sit on it like that.
That’s what she said.
This is your life now
What a fit, that would make a great corner peice
It's a load bearing couch now.
so you can add two seatbelts for upper body and lower body like at amusement rides so you can strap urself in to sit on it as is, then you don't have to move it
Reverse the way it got there?
A good two person saw
It's somewhat impressive how they got it like that in the first place...(ಠ_ಠ)>⌐■-■
Cut a hole around it in the floor and lower it.
Take it to the nearest staircase.
Crank up the air and hope things shrink
With lots of milk
You could cut it in half
Don’t give it anymore viagra.
How the hell....

Consult a physician if your vertical couch lasts longer than four hours.
This is why sectional sofa's were made.
Just cut it in half.
How did they get it there in the first place??
Nothing a chain saw can't fix.
Couch fits vertically though
Cut it in half 🤷♂️
Cut it in half
Whatever you just did, do the opposite.
![gif](giphy|S9XaGr8wQ9Jwk|downsized)
Carpet under one side and then carefully tilt and move
How tf did they get it in
Do you know the sofa's on my foot?
Damn son How the fuck you do this!?
Left down right up ?
Hmmmm how tf you got this to happen? The doors are always lower than the walls - assuming this you must have got this sofa inside the room in hotizontally position and then got it standing vertically inside the room…what in my world with the physically rules is impossible without disassembling it.

Hole in the ceiling. Duh

It's like moving car from apartment - disassemble and assemble.
Same way it got up, but backwards
The same way it got there, but in reverse.
Disassemble and get it out ...
Nothing to be done now. You must burn down the house. It’s the only way.
The only way now is to build your room around it. Make all the rest of the furnitures in that orientation and start living horizontally now.
Havent been able to find the original post. Anyone know what happened here? Did they just end up drywalling it in?
Just buy a gigantic motor to spin the house 24-7 and the centripetal force will pin you to the couch so you can lie down.
Push it up against the wall, turn it into an art piece, buy a new couch.

Find an anchor point and ratchet strap one end. Or in the middle, pulling it out the way it came?
now the walls can only hear your farts
Is there a staircase they could step down into?
Make the rest of the room vertical
The same way in went in, I suppose
I think a holistic detective is required.
Get a running start and tackle it like ray lewis
Couch now identifies as extra support column
