Furniture assembly in Lower East Side

What this visit usually covers

• Beds, desks, bookcases, and cribs are the usual posts. Count the boxes.
• A tall bookcase or a dresser should be anchored if children can climb it. That needs a stud.
• Missing hardware stops the job. Check the pack before you post, or say the hardware is incomplete.
• Hauling away the cardboard is a separate ask. Put it in the request if you want it.

Getting into the building

Lower East Side housing is mostly tenement walk-ups with narrow stairs. Risers and shutoffs are often in a shared basement.

Say if the basement is shared and who unlocks it. A photo of the stair from the entry helps the bid.

What to send with the request

• The product name or the instruction cover.
• The room where it will stand, including the wall for an anchor.
• The boxes, so the count is visible.

Assembly is not moving a household between boroughs and it is not rebuilding a broken antique unless you describe that repair.

A remote consult is separate

Fixt Virtual Fix is a video consult at $39 for 20 minutes. It can be booked from anywhere. It does not dispatch an on-site fixer. On-site furniture assembly work stays in New York ZIP codes 100–149.
