Bought a few pieces of furniture that need assembly and looking at the manuals and parts, it's clear this will take a good chunk of time and patience. Trying to decide between doing it myself or bringing in someone who does this daily. There are plenty of local services that put together flat-pack furniture from IKEA, Wayfair, and other brands, so it's tempting to just hand over the boxes and let someone else deal with it. For anyone in the area who has gone down this route, was the cost worth saving the frustration? Any rough estimates on what it typically runs? Just trying to figure out if the convenience is worth it or if I should just clear a weekend and tackle it alone.

Those flat-pack boxes are starting to pile up, and I’m not looking forward to spending my weekend deciphering an instruction manual that looks like a test of patience. I'm leaning toward hiring a pro who does this every day. For anyone who has used furniture assembly Toronto services, was it worth the cost? I'm curious about typical pricing and whether the assembly team usually handles the packaging cleanup as well. Trying to figure out if the convenience justifies the expense or if I should just roll up my sleeves and tackle it myself over a few evenings. Any local feedback would be really helpful.
