How to remove side slide mount drawers from heavy dresser?
My friends are helping me move in a few weeks. And we're gonna have to go up 4 flights of stairs with a 210lb behemoth dresser. So figuring out how to remove the drawers would make it easier. Here is a picture of the side slide mount:

Here's a link to the exact dresser in question if it'll help Millennium Bedroom Dresser B697-31 - Trivett's Furniture - Fredericksburg, VA I have tried pulling and tugging both flappy things simultaneous (up, forward, back) to no avail. You guys are the experts. -Megan |

Are you unable to remove any of the drawers? If not, then maybe that
"flap" is not the release mechanism. I sent a link, of this thread, to . Maybe they will post a response. Sonny |

Sonny Scratch that note sent to Trivetts. My email was rejected. Maybe you have to fill out their customer form, in order for an email to go through, rather than just clicking onto the email address (right side margin, in the link). http://www.trivetts.com/ContactUs.inc |
