      I bought a new desk from an online store last week because I am finally setting up a home office. The box showed up yesterday and it is way bigger and heavier than I expected. I opened it thinking I could handle it myself. There are about fifty screws, six different types of bolts, and the instructions are just pictures with no words. I spent two hours just trying to figure out which part is the left leg. My living room now looks like a hardware store exploded and I have not even gotten past step three. I live in a small condo near Yonge and Eglinton so I do not have space to just leave everything scattered around for days. Has anyone in Toronto hired someone just to assemble flat pack furniture, like a desk or a dresser, and roughly how much does that cost and where do you even find someone reliable who does not charge more than the desk itself?

      Been there. Bought a desk, opened the box, and my condo turned into a disaster zone. Fifty screws, six bolts, and instructions that looked like hieroglyphics. Three hours later I was still trying to figure out which part was the left leg. Gave up and booked a furniture assembly service Toronto. Came over, put everything together in under an hour, no leftover parts, no wobble. Just get some help. Not worth the headache.
