Taking Apart the Move: Do Removal Companies Dismantle Furniture?

Moving home or office can feel like a giant puzzle, and often, the biggest pieces are your furniture. Couches that won’t fit through doorways, wardrobes too tall to manoeuvre – it’s a common dilemma. So, the question on many minds is: do removal companies actually dismantle furniture as part of their service?

The answer, like many things in life, isn’t a simple yes or no. It often depends on the specific removal company and the agreement you have with them.

Looking at New Moves Removals and Storage, a professional moving company based in Shropshire, we can find some clarity. Our documentation indicates that dismantling and re-assembling furniture is a key part of our house removal services. This suggests that, as a standard offering, our experienced movers can help take apart and put back together your larger furniture items, making the moving process smoother for you.

However, it’s also important to consider the specifics. Our Detailed Terms & Conditions mention some exceptions. Unless specifically agreed upon in writing or by your quoter, New Moves Removals and Storage will not typically dismantle or assemble unit or system furniture (flat-pack), fitments, or fittings. Similarly, the dismantling or re-assembly of items like garden furniture, wardrobes, gym equipment, sheds, greenhouses, and other similar outdoor structures may also not be included unless explicitly stated in your quotation.

Why the potential difference? Often, flat-pack furniture and more complex installations require specific tools and expertise. While our team is highly capable in general removals, these specialised tasks might need separate arrangements to ensure they are handled correctly and safely.

So, what should you expect and how can you ensure your furniture needs are met?

• Always get a detailed quotation: This is the most crucial step. Make sure to discuss your furniture dismantling and re-assembly needs upfront with the removal company. A clear, written agreement will prevent any surprises on moving day.
• Communicate clearly: Inform the removal company about all the items that might require dismantling. This includes everything from beds and wardrobes to more complex pieces.
• Check the included services: Review your quotation carefully to see exactly what services are covered. Don’t hesitate to ask for clarification on any points you are unsure about.
• Consider your options: Some companies, like New Moves Removals and Storage, do offer furniture dismantling and reassembly as part of their standard service for house moves. However, for more complex items, you might need to confirm this or consider hiring a specialist.

At New Moves Removals and Storage, we strive to provide a seamless and stress-free move. Our experienced team is equipped to handle many furniture dismantling and re-assembly tasks, helping you avoid the headache of tackling it all yourself. We aim to be your trusted partner for home moves across Shropshire [your previous turn].
