Why Pool Tables Need Specialist Handling

Pool tables have slate beds that can crack if mishandled. The frame, legs, and felt also need care. A specialist man and van or furniture delivery team with pool table experience is recommended. Use our quote calculator and check our areas we serve.

Disassembly and Preparation

Remove the pockets and rails. Lift the felt carefully. The slate bed is in sections; label each. Use proper lifting technique—slate is very heavy. Wrap components in blankets.

Transport and Reassembly

Keep slate flat and supported. Never lean slate on its edge. At the new address, reassemble on a level surface. Re-felt or hire a specialist for re-felting. A professional house removal team can handle the full job.
