Bed Removal Services

What Types of Beds Can Be Moved?

We move every common bed type, and a few less common ones too.

• Single, king single, double, queen, king, and super king beds. Standard sizes, standard care, every time.
• Bunk beds and loft beds. Taken apart into separate frames for safe transport.
• Storage beds, ottoman beds, and divan beds. Drawers and lift-up bases get emptied and secured before the move.
• Platform beds, four-poster beds, canopy beds, and sleigh beds. Bulkier frames that often need partial disassembly to fit through doorways.
• Wooden and metal bed frames. Whatever it's made of, we bring the right tools to take it apart and put it back together.

Electric and Adjustable Bed Moves: A Special Service

Yes, we move electric and adjustable beds, and we treat them differently from a standard frame. As adjustable bed movers, we handle the motor, control box, and wiring carefully, with cables unplugged and tied down before transport rather than left dangling. The same care goes into a battery electric bed mover setup, since the mechanism and any battery pack need protecting, not just the frame. It's a special service because these beds can be damaged by rough handling in ways a standard timber or metal frame can't, so we treat every electric bed mover job as its own step in the process, not an afterthought.

How Are Bed Frames and Mattresses Moved Together?

A bed is rarely just a frame. Mattresses, headboards, footboards, bedside tables, storage drawers, and the base itself all need to travel together and arrive in the same shape they left in. At Expert Movers, we wrap mattresses on their own to keep off dust and scuffs, pack headboards and footboards flat, and keep bedside pieces and drawers grouped so nothing gets separated on the way.

Do Bed Movers Disassemble Beds?

Yes. Do movers take beds apart as standard with us, and do movers assemble beds again once they arrive, too. That covers removing the mattress, taking the frame apart, detaching headboards and footboards, and dealing with any storage compartments built into the base. If you've been wondering do I need to disassemble the bed frame for movers yourself, the answer is no, we handle it. Screws, bolts, and small fittings get bagged and labelled per bed, so nothing goes missing between pickup and setup. At the new place, we put the bed back together so you're not left guessing how it goes.

How Do You Move Large, Heavy or Awkward Beds?

King and super king beds, solid timber frames, storage beds, ottoman beds, and four-poster beds are where heavy bed movers really earn their keep. These beds need proper lifting technique, not just extra effort, especially through doorways, down stairs, and around narrow hallway corners. We pad corners and edges before moving anything, so timber frames and finished surfaces don't pick up scratches on the way out.

How Does Our Bed Removal Service Work?

1. Tell us about your bed. Type, size, and anything unusual about it, like a built-in storage base or an electric motor.
2. We plan the move. Dimensions, access points, and any handling needs get worked out before the day.
3. We prepare the bed. Disassembly happens where it's needed, with parts labelled for putting back together.
4. Move and load. Parts are carried and loaded carefully, wrapped where it matters.
5. Transport. The bed travels securely to its destination.
6. Unload and position. It goes into the room you want, not just through the front door.
7. Reassemble. We put the bed back together at the new place as part of the service.

How Does Access Affect Moving a Bed?

Bed removal usually gets hard because of access, not weight. Ground-floor houses are simple. Apartments and units with lifts need booking windows worked into the plan. Multi-storey properties and townhouses often mean getting a mattress down a staircase that doesn't bend around corners easily. Narrow entrances and tight hallways are common in older homes, and we plan around all of it before moving day rather than finding out about a problem with the bed halfway out the door.

Do You Offer Bed Pickup and Delivery?

Yes, and it covers more than moving a bed between two homes. We handle beds moving into a new property, a newly bought bed picked up from a store and delivered to your address, a bed going into storage, a bed coming back out of storage, and beds moving as one part of a bigger household relocation. If you've just bought a bed and need it picked up and delivered, that's a booking on its own, no full house move needed.

How Should You Prepare a Bed for Removal?

A few things done beforehand make the job faster and cut the risk of anything going missing.

• Strip the bedding off before we arrive
• Empty any storage compartments or drawers built into the base
• Take the mattress off yourself if it's manageable, or leave it for us
• Keep small fittings like bolts and brackets together in one spot
• Measure the bed and any tight doorways or hallways if you're not sure about access
• Clear the path from the bedroom to the front door
• Tell us about stairs or lift bookings in advance

What Does It Cost to Move a Bed?

Bed removal cost depends on a few things, not one flat number. Bed size and type matter, since a single bed takes less time than a super king with a storage base. Weight and how many movers the job needs plays a part, along with whether disassembly and putting it back together are needed. Stairs, lift access, distance, and how hard the property is to access all add or cut time off the job. If the bed is moving with other furniture, it's priced as part of that bigger job rather than on its own. Chasing the cheapest bed movers you can find on price alone can backfire if it means a rushed job or no disassembly included, so check what's covered before comparing numbers. We quote by truck size for the whole job, from $130 an hour on our smallest 3-tonne truck up to $200 an hour on our largest 10-tonne truck, with two movers included at every level.

Why Hire Professional Bed Movers?

Because a heavy bed and a set of stairs is a bad mix to handle alone. Professional bed removalists know how to lift without straining a back, get a frame through a doorway at the right angle, and carry a mattress without bending or damaging it. It also means proper loading and transport, less risk of scratches or breakages, and a bed that's put back together and ready to sleep in rather than a pile of parts in the corner.
