Pool table moving, transport and dismantling
How to move a pool table?
There is a wide range of pool tables on the market with a wide variety of prices, quality and sizes. All have one thing in common: the length is twice the width. Commercially, there are four main categories of pool tables: toy tables, residential tables, commercial tables, and professional tables.
Moving a pool table is not at all an easy process. Whatever the brand of pool table (Suprême, Toulet, Snooker, Blackball, Billiard-Royal), and its size, moving requires infinite precautions.
Moving a pool table with or without dismantling
Billiard table moving without dismantling
If you want to move the pool table from one room to another, you can do so without dismantling it. It should also not be too heavy. Depending on the model, a pool table weighs between 200 and 1000 kg. In this case, we will use 4 trolleys that we will put under each leg of the pool table, which will allow easy movement.
To begin with, you need to protect and wrap each leg of the pool table so that it does not break during transport. Knowing how to move a pool table is crucial, as improper handling can damage the surface or legs. Moving a pool table requires careful planning and the right tools to ensure a smooth process. If you’re unsure of the best way to move a pool table, consider seeking professional assistance. For those handling it themselves, disassembling the pool table’s parts, such as the slate and frame, is a must. Keep in mind that pool table moving is not just about physical effort but also about precision. When dealing with pool tables, it’s essential to prioritize safety and proper technique to avoid injury or damage. Whether you’re relocating a small home unit or a full-size billiards table, the steps to move a pool table remain consistent. This guide will help make the process of moving a pool table less daunting and more efficient.
It is also important to protect the pool table cloth and the entire table with moving blankets and bubble wrap for safe transport.

If you plan to move the pool table from one house to another, it is advisable to disassemble it just to make transportation easier and safer.
Let’s not forget that dismantling the pool table is not at all an easy task. Moving a pool table also requires careful planning and execution. As well as the transport and reassembly of the pool table’s parts, it demands the right tools, strength, and professionalism. If you’re wondering about the way to move a pool table, it’s essential to know how to move it safely. Whether you’re dealing with pool tables for personal or professional use, the process of pool table moving should not be underestimated. Proper techniques for moving a pool table ensure its integrity during the move, and hiring experts might be the best solution. Remember, knowing how to move a pool table effectively is key to avoiding damage and ensuring smooth reassembly.
It is for this reason that it is recommended to call on the professional movers of Déménagement Demelina. They will take all necessary steps to ensure that the pool table is disassembled correctly and arrives safely at your address in Montreal or elsewhere in Quebec or Ontario.
Steps for billiard disassembly:
- Detach the table pockets (located in the corners and on the sides).
- Remove the bolts under each rail. Usually there are three or four bolts under each rail.
- Detach the mat from the slate base by removing the staples. This is one of the most delicate steps because the risk is to tear the felt. And if the carpet is worn, it will be possible to install a new one during reassembly.
- Unscrew the feet.
- Transport the slate protecting it with blankets.
How to move a pool table with professionals
If you want to get rid of the steps listed above, contact professional pool table transport and assembly technicians. First, because they have all the necessary equipment. Second, because they will take care of the whole billiard moving process.
Using large, well-equipped trucks, the pool table will be transported safely to the new address in Montreal, North Shore or South Shore.
Once the pool table has been moved to the new address, the professionals will assess the new location. They will use tools like a socket wrench to ensure proper assembly. Every step of the process will be carefully followed, starting with clearing the area where the table will be placed. This is important because if they stumble on a carpet while carrying the slate, the billiard table, which is both expensive and of considerable weight, could be destroyed.
The next steps involve reassembling the pool table with precision, using the necessary supplies for proper alignment. They will also ensure the table is balanced, as any mistake could affect the way the game is played. The company handling the task will likely provide additional services, such as storage options or guide recommendations for maintenance, to help protect your investment.
