Beds & bed frames

Beds, bunk beds and box springs assembled solid and silent — including drawers, headboards and slatted frames.

Shelves & bookcases

BILLY, KALLAX and every cousin — built straight, fixed to the wall for tip-over safety where it matters.

Kitchen & garden furniture

Dining sets, garden tables and loungers — indoor or outdoor, assembled where they'll stand.

FAQ

Furniture assembly in Switzerland — your questions

What does furniture assembly cost in Switzerland?

On Werkara you agree the price directly with the helper. Typical rates are CHF 80–150 for a standard wardrobe, CHF 60–120 for a bed frame, CHF 40–80 for a shelf or bookcase, and CHF 40–60 per hour for larger jobs. Posting a task and receiving offers is free.

Who can assemble my IKEA furniture?

Verified local helpers on Werkara assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture every week — wardrobes, beds, KALLAX-style shelves, desks and whole room setups. Post your task with the item names and your address area, compare offers from helpers nearby, and book the one you like.

How long does a wardrobe take to assemble?

A standard two- or three-door wardrobe usually takes 1.5–3 hours; large sliding-door wardrobes can take half a day. Mention the model and number of boxes in your task so offers are realistic.

Do helpers bring their own tools?

Yes — screwdrivers, drills, levels and hex keys are standard kit. You just need the boxes and the instructions (and even without instructions, most helpers manage).

Can the helper fix furniture to the wall?

Yes — anchoring wardrobes and shelves to the wall is part of the job and strongly recommended for tip-over safety, especially with children at home. Mention your wall type (brick, concrete or plasterboard) in the task.

Can furniture be disassembled and reassembled for a move?

Yes. Helpers disassemble furniture at your old place, and the same or another helper reassembles it at the new one. Post the move date and the list of items — it's the move-week job everyone underestimates.

How quickly can someone come?

Most assembly tasks across Switzerland receive first replies within hours, and many jobs happen within a day or two. Furniture delivery on a set date? Post ahead and schedule the assembly for the same day.
