Swingset and Playset Moves

Endeavor DIY Swingset Plan from Jack's Backyard
Don't leave your old swingset behind, take it with you.
It's more than a backyard playset, it's a trusted family friend. It's an accumulation of adventures, memories, challenges and fun times for your family. It's easy to remember the joy you felt when your kids first saw their new wooden swingset. It will be harder to forget the look of pain in their eyes when you move to a new house and leave it at the old house.

We've been moving backyard swing sets for over almost two decades and we know how it works. It's surprising how many swingsets are left behind because the movers won't move it, the task is too great or no one is available to do the job. We have assembled, disassembled, & packed residential playsets for moves more times than we can count. Installation or assembly of equipment moved from other areas of the country is also available. A photo of the original assembled play equipment is helpful.

How We Move Wood Playscapes
Save it from a landfill. Donate it, sell it, or give it to a friend.

It starts with a phone call or on-site consultation. We need to know what type of wooden play system you have. Most people call and say it has a fort, a slide, and 3 swings with an assortment of other options. The availability of swing sets found on the internet means there are a multitude of manufacturers found in any given city. Some are made from DIY kits, plans, or Dad's Custom Playset. We need specific information such as a picture, where you bought it, brand name and age. Send info to sales@playsetservices.com. Price is based on level of difficulty, required time and distance. Repairs are billed separately.

Step One
Evaluate condition

Some wooden swingsets were not meant to be moved. We use the information you give us to determine if your playset can be moved. It's surprising how many people think we take the swings off and move the fort in one piece. That's a good way to break something on the play structure or break someone.

Step Two
​Break It Down

It's safer to break it down into moveable pieces that will fit through a 30" gate rather than tear down a section of fence or risk injury. We have touched countless designs made by different companies over the years. We know how to relocate your wooden backyard swing sets.

Step Three
Load It and Move It

Taking a wooden playset apart is not easy. Moving it and reassembling is challenging. Once it's disassembled, we lug it from the backyard and load it on a trailer custom designed to relocate play equipment. Multiple straps are used to secure the load to the trailer and we move it to your new home.

Step Four
​Unload and Reassemble

Upon arrival at the new location, we do a quick evaluation of the proposed area, offer advice about placement and then it's time to mule it to the new backyard and reassemble it just like we found it at the original house. This is the best time for playset preventive maintenance.

Step Five
​Position and Secure

We've been fairly autonomous to this point and now we need you for final placement. This the last chance to get everything just right before we attach the add-ons from the base fort and stakedown if applicable. There are additional charges to move after positioning is approved.

Assembly Complete
​Final Inspection

The construction of the playscape is complete. We take a final walk around and inspect our work for loose or missing bolts, pick up our mess and collect payment. Take advantage of this time to do preventive maintenance and pressure wash and waterseal at Step Four.

Things to think about before you hire a playset installer

  • ​Do they have a website? In the 21st century, what real business doesn't?
  • Beware of swingset installers who don't list a phone number or an e-mail address in their ad. Where will they be next month or next year?​
  • ​Believe it or not finding the cheapest deal isn't always the best thing. Beware of installers who don't charge enough. They could be hard up for cash and don't care what happens after they're paid. Playset installation is always a mental challenge and hard work. A professional will know their value.
