Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move a pool table?

A local move typically runs $220โ€“$310, depending on size/type and stairs. Long-distance moves (roughly 800 miles) are usually more like $1,450โ€“$2,045.

What drives the price up or down?

Mainly the item's size/weight class, how many flights of stairs or how difficult the access is, and โ€” for long-distance moves โ€” the distance. Local labor rates in your city also shift the price a bit.

Can I move a pool table myself?

You can for the lightest, smallest items, but most pool tables in the medium-to-heavy classes need specialized equipment (dollies, straps, disassembly tools) and 2+ experienced movers to avoid injury or damage.
