Important cost factors for moving your pool table
The size and type of pool table
If you’re planning to move a pool table, it’s important to consider the size, weight, and type of the table. Pool tables come in various sizes, from small 4 ft. tables to large 8 ft. tables.
Distance
The distance the pool table needs to be moved will also affect the cost. If the table is only moved a short distance, such as from one room to another, the cost will be lower than if it needs to be moved a long distance, such as to a different house or city.
Whether or not the pool table must be disassembled
If the pool tables need to be disassembled and moved, this will add to the overall cost. Disassembling a pool table is a complex process experienced professionals should attempt.
The number of steps involved in the relocation
If stairs are involved in the move, this will also add to the cost. Moving a pool table up or down stairs is a difficult and dangerous task only experienced professionals should attempt.
Labour cost
The cost of labour will also play a role in the final price. In most cases, the cost of labour will be £100–£200. The cost of labour may be higher, though, if the move is complicated or hard.
