You can rely on the
years of experience we have in taking apart and
putting back together sofas and couches of all makes and
sizes!
Antique and older
"real wood trim" crafted sofa or couch:
All too often, the sofa you
want to move is an antique, collector's item or
family heirloom that you are very concerned about
when it comes to taking apart older and more fragile
wooden pieces that could split or crack.

Sofas and couches
are usually made of wood and then covered with fabric
after partial assembly is completed. The assembled sofa
extremely large and heavy and require minimally two very
strong workers to move. Although you might think using
equipment such as a hand truck will make it easier, wait
till you try and move the sofa through a narrow opening
doorway! You have to try and align the sofa with
"precision" and to the "perfect position" to get it
through and usually damage occurs!
The parts are awkward in size and shape
and in many cases, can be very difficult to handle even
disassembled, to get into the common locations people want
their sofa or couch
to be in such as in a finished basement.
Moving large sofas and couches in and out of New
York City apartments and homes can be very difficult when
the elevators are way too small.
Even more often, the staircases are
very small and narrow or have obstructing overhangs along with
tight turns, delicate antique ceiling lights and
chandeliers that cannot be easily removed. Making a
maneuver is extremely difficult without causing damage to
the home interior or the sofa you want to move. |
