A company in Shin-Yokohama contacted us:
“We’re moving our office and need to dispose of three large pieces of furniture.
We’ve already asked more than 10 companies and everyone turned us down…”
When we listened further, they explained:
“When we first moved in, the big furniture was lifted in through the window by crane.
But this time, since the goal is just disposal,
we’d prefer to avoid using a crane to keep costs down.”
Cranes actually cost quite a lot.
Depending on the scale, number of items, and floor level,
the typical price range is \100,000～\200,000.
For high floors or special work, it can easily exceed \300,000.
In the Shin-Yokohama area, the estimated cost for crane use only (for these three pieces)
would be approximately \130,000～\230,000 (tax included).
“We just want to dispose of them, but that much money is too expensive…”
We completely understand how they felt.
When we arrived on site, we found:
European antique-style
◆ Mirror-back sideboard
Classic style
◆ Glass-door cabinet
Classic style
◆ Dining table (with glass top)
All of them were very impressive and quite heavy ー clearly not easy to move.
We first protected the floors and walls around the apartment carefully.
Then we disassembled each piece of furniture one by one, separating
the parts to make them lighter.
Especially with the larger items, we took extra care during disassembly.
After about 2～3 hours of work, we successfully removed all the furniture.
The customer looked very relieved and said:
“If we had hired a crane, it would have cost around \300,000.
You did it for less than one-third of that price, and with such careful and detailed work ー
I never expected this level of service.
The disassembly was fast and precise, just like a real carpenter. I was really surprised!”
Situations like this,“It came in by crane, but how do we get it out?”－ are actually very common.
However, if we carefully check the structure of the furniture and the exit route,
there are many cases where we can safely remove items without a crane.
If you want to keep costs as low as possible,please feel free to consult us ー including whether
a crane is really necessary or not.
