Furniture and IKEA assembly in Long Island City
Beds, PAX wardrobes, dressers, desks and cribs — built square, and anchored to the wall when they're tall.
Flat-pack furniture is easy until it's a tall wardrobe in a tight bedroom and the building wants the elevator booked. We assemble IKEA and boxed furniture from any store in Long Island City, Queens apartments, check that each piece is square and stable, and anchor tall or top-heavy pieces to the wall so they can't tip.
What’s included
- IKEA and flat-pack furniture from any store
- Beds, bunk beds and cribs
- PAX and other wardrobe systems
- Dressers, desks, bookcases and media units
- Tip-over anchoring for tall pieces
- Wall-hung cabinets and shelves into studs or concrete
Tall pieces get anchored
Wardrobes, dressers and bookcases can tip when a loaded drawer is pulled or a child climbs them. Tall pieces get the anchor kit they came with — or a better one matched to your wall — fastened into a stud, concrete or masonry, not just the drywall.
Building logistics
Larger buildings often need a booked freight or service elevator for deliveries, and some ask for a certificate of insurance even for assembly. Check with management before the visit and tell us what they need. We plan the time around your building, not the other way round.

Straight answers
How much does it cost to have someone assemble IKEA furniture?
It depends on the pieces — a nightstand and a PAX wardrobe are very different jobs. Send the item names or links and you get a quote before we start.
Is it worth paying for IKEA assembly?
For a small shelf, maybe not. For wardrobes, beds, cribs and anything tall, paying someone saves hours and gets the piece square and anchored to the wall.
