It is quite heavy but to be moved it has to come apart. The slate is in 3 sections. I took it apart and moved it myself then put it back togather again. (pretty easy) I had a professional table felter come out and level it and smooth the lines were the slate pieces meet. They use a wax and sand paper then install the felt. I have the guys card top quality work and if you use the same felt (hardly used) it cost about 50 bucks. Still even putting on new felt (different color) the price is quite reasonable. I suppose you can do it yourself but the type of wax and spray adhesive used is unknown to me. I am sure a google search could provide do-it-yourself instructions. The guy will also move and setup the table for a fee.
