Disassemble gas-lift bed frame

$120

Darlinghurst NSW 2010, Australia

31st May 2026

I need an experienced handyman to disassemble a gas-lift bed frame in my apartment and carry the pieces down to our building's designated junk disposal area. The building has full lift access from my floor straight to the disposal area (no stairs involved). Once unbolted, the pieces will be flat, so bringing a platform trolley/dolly will make this a quick, one-person job. Please bring your own tools, including a socket set/spanners and allen keys, to properly disconnect the frame and the high-pressure hydraulic gas struts. Important Safety Note: There are mold patches on the fabric lining on the underside of the lift panel. Please bring a face mask and gloves for your own safety when handling it. Flexible time of day, but ideally looking to get this completed this week before my new bed arrives.

Denis was amazing. Highly recommended!
