How to Move a Headboard

A headboard bolts onto the bed frame and comes off with a few fasteners, making it one of the simpler bedroom pieces to move. Protecting the face, whether wood or upholstered, is the main concern.

Pro tip: Tape the hardware bag directly to the back of the headboard so the specific bolts travel with it.

Watch out: Do not stack heavy items against an upholstered headboard, since pressure and dirt can permanently mark the fabric even through wrapping.
