                    Due to an operation my wife will be having soon, we need a double bed downstairs for a couple of months. Anyone know a contact for rental?
Checked out a couple but they have minimum six months rental.

            "Roomservice by CORT" do all sorts of furniture hire, from as little as a month2

            Bit wasteful, but ikea does a double frame for about 70 quid. Could that and a mattress be equivalent to a rental?
 sell it after?3

            How about an inflatable one?
 Bed, not wife I mean.15

            - The NHS, hospital, or local council may be able to provide a hospital-style bed or funding for a medical bed.
- Equipment loan storesLocal councils and NHS trusts may have equipment loan stores that can loan out hospital beds for short periods of time.

            If you are both sleeping downstairs (?) then would it be worth buying a bed frame, eg Ikea, and moving your own mattress down?3

            When my mother in law could no longer cope with stairs we brought a single bed down from upstairs (probably useless comment but you never know).
 All the best to you both.1

            I had an abdominal op a few years back where they said don’t use stairs but once the stitches came out it was fine - and a lot quicker than expected.It may be different for your wife’s operation but I wouldn’t spend a lot of money tbh.0
