When it comes to bed frames there are different types such as platform beds, sleigh beds, canopy beds and even storage beds. Each of these types has its unique design which may require dismantling before transport. For instance platform beds have a very low profile and the base may require dismantling to fit through tight spaces. On the other hand, sleigh beds have curved headboards and footboards which may make them difficult to transport without taking them apart.

Additionally if the bed has a headboard and footboard these may require removal before transporting the bed frame. Our professional team of movers have the necessary tools and expertise to safely remove and transport headboards and footboards without causing any damage.

If the bed is an antique or a family heirloom we understand that it has sentimental value and requires special attention. In such cases we will take extra care in dismantling, packing and transporting the bed frame to ensure that it arrives at your new home in its original condition.
