Furniture Assembly Services

We take apart bed frames, cribs, sectionals and desks at your old home, keep every bolt labeled, and put them back together in the right room at the new one.

Furniture Assembly Services That Travel With Your Move

Most big furniture does not fit through a doorway in one piece. Bed frames, sectionals, bunk beds and dining tables usually have to come apart before they can leave the house, and somebody has to put them back together at the other end. Our crews handle both halves of that job. We take your furniture apart at the old place, move it with the rest of your things, and rebuild it in the right room at the new one. If you are booking a full household move, furniture disassembly and reassembly can be built right into the plan.

What We Take Apart and Put Back Together

Most of our assembly work involves bed frames and headboards, cribs, bunk and loft beds, sectional sofas, dining tables with removable legs or leaves, office desks and tall wardrobes. Each piece gets its own bag of hardware, labeled with the item and the room it belongs in, then taped to the piece or kept in a parts box that rides with us. That small step is what keeps a bed from showing up short four bolts. Glass tops, mirrors and shelves come off and get wrapped on their own. When we also handle your boxes through our packing and unpacking help, the hardware bags go on the same inventory.

New Flat-Pack Furniture and Tricky Pieces

Moving is when a lot of people buy new furniture, and the boxes often land at the new address the same week as the truck. We can assemble new flat-pack dressers, bookcases and desks while we are already there, so you are not up at midnight with an Allen key and a missing step. Some older pieces were built with glue or dowels instead of hardware, and some particleboard does not survive being taken apart twice. We look at each item first and tell you honestly if it is safer to move it whole. For a single dresser or one room of furniture, our small move service covers that too.

Furniture Assembly Across Dayton and Cincinnati

Our Dayton moving crews and our Cincinnati moving professionals are Dow employees, not day labor found that morning. The same people who take your crib apart are usually the ones who rebuild it, so nothing gets lost in a handoff. Tell us which pieces need work when you request your quote, and we will plan the time and tools for each one.

These guys were on time, professional, friendly, and very efficient. We could not have asked for a better crew for a 12 hour moving day. They never complained and just stayed focused on getting everything done. They protected our furniture, pictures, and the walls and floor of our brand new house.I highly recommend Dow for an exceptional moving process.
They did a great job moving some very heavy furniture, would definitely recommend.
Response from the owner:Thanks for the recommendation! Heavy furniture is where a careful crew really earns its keep, and we're glad everything made it safely. We truly appreciate you choosing Dow Moving for your Dayton move. Dow Moving, Customer Service

Furniture Assembly Services FAQs

Do I need to keep the original assembly instructions?

Arrow Down

It helps, but it is not required. Our crews take apart and rebuild common bed frames, cribs and desks all the time, and we photograph complicated pieces before they come apart. If you still have the paper instructions or the model number, set them with the furniture and we will use them. For newer flat-pack items, the brand’s website usually has a manual we can pull up on site.

Will taking apart particleboard furniture damage it?

Arrow Down

It can. Particleboard holds screws and cam locks well the first time, but every time hardware comes out the holes wear a little. Pieces that have already been moved a few times sometimes strip out. We check the joints before starting, and if a piece looks likely to fail, we will suggest moving it whole if it fits through the doors, or let you decide whether it is worth taking at all.

Can you rebuild a crib or bunk bed so it is ready to use the first night?

Arrow Down

Yes. Cribs and bunk beds are some of the most common pieces we reassemble, and we put every slat, rail and bolt back where the manufacturer designed it to go, then check that the frame is tight. Because these beds hold kids, we still suggest parents look the crib or guard rails over against the instructions before the first night, just as you would after any assembly.

How much time does furniture disassembly add to a move?

Arrow Down

It depends on the pieces. A basic bed frame comes apart quickly, while a loft bed, a large wardrobe or a sectional with many connectors takes longer, and new flat-pack furniture can take the most time of all. Give us a list of what needs work when you ask for a quote. We build that time into the schedule so it does not surprise you on move day.

Should I take my bed apart myself before the movers arrive?

Arrow Down

You can, and it is fine if you are comfortable doing it. Put every screw, bolt and bracket in a zip bag, label it, and tape it to the headboard or rails so it travels with the frame. If you would rather leave it, our crew will handle it and label the hardware our way. The only thing to avoid is loose hardware tossed into a random kitchen box.
