Moving a pool table is much more complex than it might seem at first glance.
While having a pool table provides you with built-in entertainment, when it comes time to move it to a new location, you might be unsure how to begin. The fact is that pool table moving is far more difficult than it appears at first glance. Unlike conventional furniture, pool tables are large, complicated, and finely balanced pieces of equipment that must be carefully disassembled, transported, and reassembled to ensure they work as they should in your new space.
Each component, from the slate bed to the rails, felt, and frame, must be handled with care during pool table moving to avoid damage or misalignment. Not only that but the slate, which can weigh hundreds of pounds, is highly fragile and can easily crack or warp if lifted or positioned incorrectly. In addition, pool tables must be re-leveled after installation to ensure precise gameplay, which requires specific tools and knowledge.
With these things in mind, you might wonder if it’s simply easier to leave the table where it is, even if that means having to buy a new one at your next address. The good news is that our team at Wittman’s Pool Table Services is well versed when it comes to pool table moving. We have worked with both residential and commercial customers in the Belleville, Illinois area to move their pool tables to a new address or another area in their current location.
With over 30 years of experience on our side, we understand the structure of various table models and have the necessary equipment to transport them securely. We also understand how to preserve delicate parts, navigate small spaces, and reassemble and level the table to manufacturer specifications.

Here at Wittman’s Pool Table Services, we understand how stressful moving can be; especially when you need to safely transport your pool table from one property to another.

Hidden
Can I move my pool table myself?
Theoretically, yes, but we don’t recommend it. DIY pool table moving can lead to scratches, torn cloth, broken components, and other issues that can be costly to repair. Furthermore, if you don’t have the right equipment or expertise to handle the task safely, you could wind up facing serious injuries or accidentally damaging your property.
Is it always necessary to disassemble a pool table before moving it?
In most cases, yes. Even if the fully assembled pool table can fit through the door, trying to lift and carry the entire table can be a major challenge. Our team will carefully take apart your table and package each component to prevent anything from getting damaged during transport.
Will you assemble and level the pool table at its new location?
Absolutely! A key part of our pool table moving service is making sure that your pool table is reassembled and carefully leveled so that you can begin enjoying it again as soon as possible. We’ll handle everything from start to finish, reducing the stress of your move.
