The Art of Taking Things Apart (and Putting Them Back)

Large furniture like beds, wardrobes, and dining tables often cannot be moved in one piece. Proper disassembly is crucial for both the item's safety and the truck's space management.

1. Keep Track of Hardware

The most common moving disaster is losing screws. We use 'hardware bags'—small Ziploc bags taped directly to a large piece of the furniture they belong to.

2. Document the Process

If you're doing it yourself, take photos of the item as you take it apart. This serves as a manual when you're trying to figure out which leg goes where in your new bedroom.

3. Professional Tools

Our team comes equipped with specialized tools—Allen keys, power drills, and rubber mallets—to ensure furniture is disassembled without stripping screws or damaging the wood.
