Moving House? Don't Forget the Trampoline
It's on every removals company's exclusions list - "we don't disassemble or transport trampolines". So you're left figuring out how to take apart 100+ springs, metres of safety netting, and poles that weigh more than you'd expect.
I'll dismantle it properly, bag all the fixings together, label the poles, and have it ready for the removals van. Or if you're doing a DIY move, I can load it ready for you to transport.
💡 Pro tip: Trampolines are actually easier to move than you'd think once they're dismantled - but taking them apart without losing springs everywhere or bending poles is where people struggle.

What to Expect
Step 1: Safety Net Down
If your trampoline has a safety net enclosure, that comes down first - poles unclipped, net removed, and packed separately.
Step 2: Spring Removal
Using proper spring removal tools, I'll take off all the springs methodically. They go straight into a bag so none get lost in the grass.
Step 3: Frame Disassembly
Legs and frame sections dismantled and labelled by position. Mat folded properly. Everything organised ready for transport or reassembly.
🔧 DIY Tips
Want to tackle it yourself? Here's the process:
🔧 Tools you'll need
- Spring removal tool (or two - makes it much faster)
- Adjustable spanner
- Cable ties or marker pen for labelling
- Heavy duty bags for springs and fixings
- Gloves (springs can be sharp)
📐 Disassembly order
- Remove safety net and poles (if fitted)
- Take off springs - work around in sections
- Remove mat
- Dismantle frame legs and sections
- Bag and label EVERYTHING
⚠️ Common DIY mistakes
- Trying to remove springs by hand (you need the proper tool)
- Not labelling which poles go where (they look identical but aren't)
- Losing springs in the grass (bag them as you go)
- Forcing bent poles apart (they unbolt, they don't pull apart)
💡 Pro trick: Take photos as you dismantle it, especially of how the frame sections connect. When you're reassembling months later, those photos are gold dust.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
🏠 Booking reassembly too? Let me know when you book disassembly. If you're moving locally, I can often do both on the same day. If you're moving further away, we can arrange reassembly once you're settled in.
Damaged parts? If springs are rusted, the mat's torn, or poles are bent, I'll point it out as I disassemble. Moving house can be a good time to replace worn parts before reassembly.
Storage tip - trampolines can stay dismantled for months or even years. Just keep everything dry and the mat will be fine. I've reassembled trampolines that have been in garages for ages.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will you be able to put it back together at my new place?
Yes, absolutely. Most people book disassembly and reassembly together. If you're moving locally I can do both on the same day, or if you're moving further away I can come back once you're settled in. I'll bag and label everything so reassembly is straightforward.
Can you disassemble any size trampoline?
Yes - small 8ft ones, standard 10-12ft family trampolines, and large 14-16ft ones. The bigger they are, the longer it takes, but the process is the same. I'll quote based on the size once you let me know what you've got.
What if some springs are rusted or the mat's damaged?
I'll point out anything that's looking worn or broken as I take it apart. If you need replacement parts for reassembly, I can advise where to get them. Sometimes moving house is a good time to fit a new mat or springs if they're past their best.
Do I need to do anything before you arrive?
Just clear the area around the trampoline so I can work safely. And make sure the kids have had their last bounce - once I start taking it apart, that's it until it goes back up!
How long does disassembly take?
Standard 10-12ft trampoline is usually 1.5-2 hours. Bigger ones or those with safety nets take a bit longer. Small ones can be quicker. I'll give you a proper time estimate when I know what size yours is.
