Our Furniture Assembly Services in Philly
Our furniture assembly service covers residential moving and office moving projects. Whether you are moving into a house or an apartment, we take care of furniture disassembly and reassembly as part of the move. Moving heavy furniture often means taking pieces apart to get them through doorways, down stairs or into an elevator. We handle beds, tables and other furniture that must be taken apart to fit through doorways.
| Service Type | What We Handle |
|---|---|
| Residential | Beds, tables and other home furniture that must be taken apart to fit through doorways. |
| Office | Office furniture that must be taken apart to move it, as part of an office move. |
| Problem Solving | Disassembly when a piece will not fit through a doorway, down the stairs or into the elevator. |
Furniture Assembly Prices and Rates in Philadelphia
Our prices for furniture assembly in Philadelphia are based on an hourly rate that includes the truck. We maintain a 3-hour minimum for every appointment. Our rates are scaled based on the size of the crew required for your specific job:
| Crew Size | Hourly Rate (Truck Included) |
|---|---|
| 2 Movers | $150/hr |
| 3 Movers | $200/hr |
| 4 Movers | $250/hr |
To secure your moving date, a non-refundable $150 deposit is required, which counts toward your final bill. The billing clock starts when our truck leaves the terminal in Northeast Philadelphia and stops when unloading is done. This means the time spent traveling from our terminal to your door is part of the billable hours. However, the return trip to the terminal is on us. Factors such as moving heavy furniture or navigating multiple flights of stairs will influence the total time worked.

How We Work: From Terminal to Your Door
What you pay depends on how long the job takes. The total time depends on how much there is to move, stairs and floors, the elevator, how far the truck can park, and how much furniture has to come apart. The bill is the hourly rate for the time actually worked, and there is no separate mileage charge.
