How to Move a Pool Table Without Damaging It

A pool table is one of the more challenging household items to move. Its weight, size and construction make professional handling important.

Why Pool Tables Are Difficult to Move

Pool tables can be extremely heavy and difficult to manoeuvre through doors, hallways and staircases.

Some tables also contain delicate components that require careful handling.

Disassembly May Be Necessary

Depending on the table, components may need to be carefully removed before transportation.

This can include:

• Pockets
• Rails
• Legs
• Frame components
• Other removable sections

The correct process depends on the specific table.

Protect the Table During Transportation

Components should be wrapped and secured appropriately. Surfaces should be protected from scratches and impacts during loading and transportation.

Plan the New Location

Before the table arrives, make sure the new room has sufficient space for the table and for people to play around it.

Check doorways and access routes before moving day.
