When you are ready to move, whether you plan to move across town or across the country, there are a lot of things to get organized and ready. You need to consider how to get all your things from the current location to the new one with as few hiccups along the road as possible. One thing that you may wonder about is whether a mover will disassembler your bed for you.

Do Movers Disassemble Beds?

Yes, movers will disassemble your bed and any other furniture you would like. In fact, they may insist on doing it to make sure that the bed frames are able to get through the door frames and the halls without causing damage. This can save you some time and hassle because you can ask the movers to do the work for you.

However, you must remember that you will be charged for this service because it does take some time to disassemble and assemble your furniture. If you are working with a local move, which means your location is within 100 miles of your new location, you will be charged the normal rates based on how many hours the movers take to get it all done. For moves that are more than 100 miles, you will be charged by the weight of the item.

Do I Need to Take My Bed Apart?

Most of the furniture you plan to take with you when you move does not need to be disassembled at all. The movers can just pick it up and put it in place. However, your bed frame, along with some other larger furniture, will need to be taken apart. You can choose to do the work yourself and save a little money, or you can ask the movers to do it for you to save yourself some time.

How Do the Movers Disassemble My Bed?

If you do have some furniture that needs to be taken apart as you move and reassembled once you get to the new home, then let the moving company know ahead of time. They may ask you a few questions to ensure that they are prepared and can handle the furniture that you would like moved. This can also make sure you get an accurate budget and invoice for your move.

Should I Hire a Mover to Disassemble My Furniture?
 

Homeowners often choose to disassemble their own furniture because it can save them money. If there is an item that you are struggling to get apart on your own without breaking or you do not have the time to do the disassembling yourself, then it is better to hire a mover to do the work for you.

There are many moving services that you can enjoy when you hire a company to help you get from your current location to a new one. While most homeowners just ask the movers to take a few boxes and then drive the items to a new location, if you have a number of heavy furniture pieces and a large bed, you may want to ask a mover to help you disassembler your bed during the move.
