Handy furniture assembly doesn’t have to be hard!
Looking up “handyman services near me” is a good place to start, but knowing all options is important. It doesn’t truly matter the size of the company, but how well the job gets done!
Should I stay local or go with a big name?
Whether you choose a big-name service for furniture assembly jobs or go local, you’ll want a service that makes you feel comfortable. After all, you are paying for it! Here’s a rundown of some of the options that you have for your furniture assembly.
- TaskRabbit
TaskRabbit is an app that’s growing. Each individual Tasker sets their own rates and the types of tasks that they perform for users. As it’s a service app, there is, of course, the option to review the Tasker. - LoadUp
Known for our on-demand junk pickup and removal service, LoadUp has moved into the assembly field, and why not? As a company that removes old items, it makes sense that they can help you set up the new things. Get a new bedroom set? LoadUp will help you assemble it while also hauling away your mattress, box spring, dresser, and more. - Local Stores
Many furniture stores offer an add-on assembly service when you have your items delivered. You may be able to find reviews about the assembly service provided by searching online, but not always. Remember that not every employee, especially since they are not rated or reviewed based on their performance, is willing to do their best. - Handy and Thumbtack.
Handy and Thumbtack are similar to TaskRabbit, where it’s a site that connects people in need of projects completed and people willing to complete these projects. - Local General Contractors and Handymen.
Using Google, Nextdoor, Facebook, or similar apps can help you find local general contractors and handypersons. Not all general contractors assemble your items unless they include them as part of their remodeling or other contracts. You can often use word of mouth to find general contractors or handymen that your friends and family have used in this past.
