Woman gets transport for furniture (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

divan

'furniture' is the definition.
(divan is a kind of furniture)

'woman gets transport' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'di' (**).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'transport' becomes 'van' (van is a kind of transport).
'di'+'van'='DIVAN'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for divan that I've seen before include "Backless seat; bed" , "Long backless sofa" , "Sort of bed" , "Sofa - bed" , "Couch - bed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
