A move usually leaves a garage stacked with flat boxes and a set of instructions written by somebody who's never held a screwdriver. We build the beds, dressers, desks, bookcases, dining sets and patio furniture quickly and correctly — every cam lock seated, every panel square — and we haul the mountain of cardboard off with us when we go.
Tip-over safety isn't an upsell with us. Dressers, bookcases and wardrobes get anchored to the studs at no extra charge, because it takes five minutes and it's the kind of thing that matters when there are kids in the house.
Garage and attic heat is the quiet enemy of flat-pack furniture staged before a move. Particleboard and laminate panels left baking in an un-conditioned garage through a summer week can swell, bow and soften at the cam holes, so a piece that would have gone together clean fights you at every joint. When boxes have sat in the heat, we build sooner rather than later and check each panel for warp first.
We generally price per item by how involved the build is, quoted before we start. A nightstand is quick; a wall of modular closet units, a bunk bed or a sectional with dozens of fasteners takes real time. Wardrobes and tall cases include the anchoring at no charge. Outdoor and playset builds run higher — more parts, plus we ground-anchor them for our wind. The real savings come from stacking several pieces into one visit, since one trip and setup across a room's worth of furniture beats separate calls.
Yes, and we anchor them for real wind. A trampoline that's fine in most towns is a sail out here, so we ground-anchor them properly instead of trusting the little stakes in the box.
Generally a flat rate per item based on how involved it is, quoted before we start. Stack a few pieces into one visit and the per-item cost drops noticeably.
Every time. We break the boxes down, bag the foam and plastic, and either set it out for your pickup day or haul it off entirely — your call.
Often, yes. We carry a broad stock of common cams, dowels, screws and shelf pins, so a missing bag does not always stop the job. For a proprietary bracket or a cracked panel we get the build as far as it safely goes and tell you exactly what to request from the maker.
We do. Beds, large wardrobes and modular units often have to come apart to clear a doorway or stairwell, and rebuilding them at the new house is cleaner than dragging them whole. We label and bag the hardware as we disassemble so nothing goes missing between the two ends of the move.
