Why disassemble your furniture

Disassembling your furniture might sound like a mountain to climb, especially when you have to reassemble everything in your new house. Surely, you should start this process a few weeks before moving day.

Despite the difficulty of this task, it offers many benefits.

You save time and effort, as you can easily move the pieces into the truck. Simultaneously, you save money because you won’t need a bigger truck to fit them in. Best of all? You save yourself from a backache.

Lifting heavy furniture without the proper equipment or technique can cause you injuries.

Tips before you start disassembling

As disassembling is a demanding job, you should keep in mind some things that you ought to do before you start.

1. Gather the necessary tools

The disassembly process requires certain tools to make it feasible and easier. This way, when you start disassembling, you won’t go crazy trying to find them. A shortlist of tools you may need includes:

Screwdrivers
Hammer
Wrenches
Packing tape
Bubble wrap

The best way to start is to gather them so that you know exactly where they are and what you need to buy.

2. Make a list with furniture to disassemble

A home includes many pieces of furniture. Some are small and lightweight, while others are big and heavy. Before you start disassembling, think about which furniture cannot be easily lifted and transported. Items like beds, wardrobes, dressers etc. surely need to be disassembled for an easier move.

On the contrary, furniture like chairs, that can be placed on the top of each other and do not take up a lot of space, do not need to be disassembled.

3. Follow the instructions

A lot of furniture is complex and difficult to disassemble. To avoid the feeling of trying to solve a 5000-piece puzzle, the best thing you can do is read the instructions.

This way, you can follow the instructions step by step and disassemble it easily.

Unfortunately, people rarely keep the instructions when they assemble furniture.

But happily, you can find instructions online.

4. Get ziplock bags

It is really important not to miss a single thumbscrew or bolt. To make assembly easier, when you start disassembling your furniture, don’t mix them together. Start disassembling your furniture one by one and put their screws into a zip lock bag to ensure that they don’t get lost. You can also tie them to the furniture pieces. Moreover, you can label the bag with a marker, writing the name of the furniture they correspond to.

5. Which furniture to disassemble
