Whether you are moving across the yard to make room for a patio or across the country to a new home, a swing set can be moved. The trick is to take it apart carefully, label and protect the parts and rebuild it with fresh hardware where needed.
Our relocation service handles disassembly, transport and reassembly, and we check the condition of the lumber and hardware along the way.
How relocation works
We photograph and label the set, remove it in the reverse order of assembly and bundle the parts so nothing gets mixed up. Hardware is bagged and tagged or replaced as needed.
At the new location we prepare the site, rebuild the set, add a fresh surface and check every connection.
When it makes sense
Moving a good set often costs less than replacing it, especially for custom and high-quality builds. If a set is too worn, we will tell you honestly and offer repair or replacement options.
It is also a good chance to refresh the stain, replace seats and chains and add something new.
From first call to first swing.
