How much does furniture assembly cost?

Typical assembly jobs include putting together desks, TV stands, dressers, playground sets, outdoor furniture, entertainment centers and bed frames, and each of these may entail a different cost based on their complexity.

Who can put furniture together?

A range of different pros can put furniture together, including contractors, handymen and even specialized furniture assembly professionals. 

Do you tip furniture assembly guys?

If you’re pleased with their customer service and professionalism, it’s a nice gesture to tip your furniture assembly guys. When furniture needs to be assembled and installed — particularly if you have them try the piece in various spots — that might be even more reason to leave a tip. Also consider factors like weather. If a crew is battling inclement weather or assembling a heavy piece of furniture on a scorching summer day, it’s kind to tip a little bit extra.

Can you hire someone to put together furniture?

Yes, you can hire a professional furniture assembler to put together your furniture. The best way to find a furniture assembly pro in your area is to perform an online search and compare pros.

You should always search for top-rated pros in your area, and read their online profiles. Look for photos of past projects they’ve worked on, and find out if they have experience assembling beds, desks and office furniture, couches, tables, barbecues, gazebos — whatever it is you need help with.

Then, contact several furniture assemblers and ask them to send you a free cost estimate before you hire anyone.

Hired Daniel to help with furniture assembly for my new apartment and he did outstanding work! He efficiently assembled all pieces (i.e. platform bed frame, dresser, desk etc...) in a timely and professional manner, and even agreed to help us move in living room furniture we bought off a friend. Instead of having to schedule separate movers, we were able to set up all of our bulky pieces of furniture (i.e. sofa) in our apartment within one day because Daniel volunteered to drive a U-Haul over himself after finishing with the furniture assembly. Very grateful and happy with the outcome!

Terry arrived at the furniture store before me and had the furniture loaded and ready to go when I arrived. He skillfully handled getting the box to the 2nd floor and assembled the table professionally and with ease! I highly recommend his services.

I could not have been happier with my experience having Chris assemble our large IKEA items. He was prompt, efficient, and the IKEA furniture is much sturdier than we have ever gotten it assembling it ourselves. Would certainly hire Chris again!

Excellent work and very flexible. Some of the furniture that I needed assembled came with missing parts and they made the rescheduling process very easy. Very happy with the service and company!

Fantastic experience! I hired the Honey Do Crew to assemble office furniture for my home office. This establishment exhibited a high level of professionalism, responsiveness and high quality of work. If you need any type off assembly work, Honey Do Crew is the “best”! YOU ROCK!

Travis arrived as agreed. He was respectful of my home. He and his son, who he was teaching how to assemble furniture as a fallback life skill, assembled a gold bar cart and wood file cabinet with ease. He was very professional and I would hire him again.

I will never book with anyone else when it comes to furniture assembly! This guy showed up and showed out! Assembled 4 pieces ( entire bed, two night stands, dresser) in 3 hours. Such a quality company. The work he’s done makes perfect sense for the rating he has on here. Should be greater if I can be honest. Don’t hesitate to book, just do it!

I can't say enough good things! He put together my furniture in record time AND fixed a tv stand which I asked for help getting to the curb. He is pleasant, talented, and magical. I would (and will) recommend him to anyone who needs furniture assembled. I would also use him for other things he does, like custom work from scratch.

Mohamed was a dream to work with. This “piece” of furniture (a Murphy bed w/bookshelf) arrived in 6 boxes and weighed over 500lbs. We were overwhelmed by the mere thought of assembling it, but he wasn’t the least bit intimidated and got right to work. It took him two days and was a bigger job than he expected, but he was so optimistic and pleasant the entire time. We will absolutely use him again and cannot thank him enough!
