Pool Table Moving

Yes, We Move Pool Tables in Palo Alto

A slate pool table cannot be moved in one piece without risking a cracked slate or a warped frame. The right way to move one is a full disassembly: rails, pockets, and legs come off, the felt is protected or carefully lifted, and each slate section is padded and carried separately. That is exactly how Joshua's Moving handles every pool table move, and most local jobs are completed in a single visit of 3 to 5 hours.

Palo Alto homes make access planning matter. Older homes in Old Palo Alto and Crescent Park often have game rooms reached by narrow interior stairs, Eichler homes in Midtown and Greenmeadow have atrium entries and slab floors that need protection, and downtown condos near University Avenue usually require an elevator reservation. We scout the access on both ends before move day so there are no surprises with a 250 pound slate section on the stairs.

How a Pool Table Move Works

1. Review: You send photos or a video of the table and the access points at both homes, or we do a quick walkthrough.
2. Disassembly: We remove the rails, pockets, and legs, and protect or lift the felt depending on the table.
3. Slate handling: Each slate piece is padded, moved on equipment rated for the weight, and transported flat and secured.
4. Transport: The frame and components ride padded and strapped in our truck.
5. Reassembly and leveling: We rebuild the table at the destination and level it carefully. If the felt needs replacement, we can point you to a local refelting specialist.
