The bed will come apart in the same way as the lower bunk.
Take apart ikea bunk bed.
You should be able to slide the panels out of their notches once the bed legs are all removed.
You could also try simply starting at the top and working downwards with smaller pieces.
If they are the ones i m thinking of when you turn them clockwise they engage with the head of a metal dowel in the other piece they are connecting with.
Put a piece of wood up against the slat and the bedside and hit it with a hammer.
The metal rails will need to be unbolted from the wood in order to take the ladder support off of the bed so keep that in mind.

Use a chisel to pry one leg of the headboard away from the extender.
The joint is like a leg and rail except that the support piece is an extension of the leg.
If you re on your own then one relatively foolproof way to take apart your ikea furniture is by following the instructions backwards.

If you wish to completely dismantle the bed continue removing whatever screws and bolts you can find.
Leave the screws in place.
Position the bed so that one of the short sides is flush against a wall.
You may have to tap the other part to free it completely.
Before you separate the headboard and footboard from the extensions remove the side rails in the same manner as above.
Remove the top bunk and all but one of the top rails.
To undo just turn them a half turn anti clockwise and they will disengage.
And you will still need to make a trip to ikea.
I wiggle apart the two furniture pieces until it comes out a bit then push them back together and get a good grip with pliers to pull them out.
