How to Move a Playset

A large wooden playset with a fort, slide, and swing beam is heavy and complex. Some small sets can be lifted a short distance with several strong people, but most need full disassembly, careful labeling, and reassembly on a level, anchored base.

Pro tip: Consider hiring a playset installer for the rebuild, since squaring, leveling, and anchoring it correctly is the hard part.

Watch out: A playset must be rebuilt level and re-anchored, since an unstable or unanchored set is dangerous for children.
