Disassembly and move prep involves safely taking apart furniture or large items so they can be moved without damage. This includes removing legs, disconnecting hardware, separating panels, and organizing all screws and components. Proper prep prevents scratches, dents, broken parts, and the frustration of items that won’t fit through doors, hallways, or elevators — making your move smoother and faster.

Proper disassembly protects your furniture, walls, floors, and doorframes during the move. It reduces the risk of breakage, prevents movers from forcing oversized items through tight spaces, and speeds up loading times. Well-prepped items also reassemble more cleanly at your new home, helping you avoid missing hardware or damaged components. It’s one of the easiest ways to reduce stress and avoid costly moving mistakes in Toronto.

Disassembly can be tricky depending on the furniture type. Many items have hidden screws, fragile dowels, or metal fittings that easily strip or snap. IKEA-style systems, adjustable beds, and modular wardrobes can be especially complicated. Without the right tools or experience, DIY disassembly often leads to broken pieces or lost hardware. That’s why many Toronto residents choose 6IX Assembly — we handle it safely, quickly, and without damage.

Timing depends on the type of furniture, how it was assembled originally, and how complex the structure is. Simple beds may take 10–20 minutes, while wardrobes, shelving systems, and desks can take longer. Multi-unit modular systems may require additional time for careful labeling. Hiring professionals ensures the job is done efficiently, correctly, and with zero guesswork.

Most disassemblies require drills, hex keys, screwdrivers, pliers, socket sets, and sometimes specialized star bits. Some premium or older furniture may need unique tools or careful manual work to avoid cracking wood or stripping hardware. The 6IX Assembly team arrives fully equipped with every tool required to break down items safely and cleanly — regardless of brand or age.

Costs vary depending on furniture size, complexity, and quantity. Simple items cost less, while multi-unit systems or heavy pieces requiring careful handling are priced higher. The best way to get accurate pricing is to request a custom quote with photos or product links. 6IX Assembly offers transparent, premium rates across Toronto and the GTA with no hidden fees.
