Q: Do all moving companies provide full service office moves?
A: No. Typically all moving companies say “we can do that” to prospective
or even on-going customers; when in fact, all movers have laborers, but not all
movers have the trained personnel or equipment resources necessary to properly service
their clients. We highly recommend that you ask them for references and personnel
certification in office moving services.

Q:Is it more cost-effective for us to let our furniture dealer / installer include
our moving services as part of their total services package or should we consider
discussing our physical relocation with a professional moving company?
A: The sound of a one-stop shop service package can be attractive, but the
typical furniture dealer or installer is ill-equipped to handle the many challenges
that a relocation may entail. The primary challenge is having the proper equipment
to protect the buildings, elevators, and the padding necessary to wrap all furniture
and cabinets. Computers and other electronics requires specific equipment for a
safe transition. Finally, the experience of trained office movers is an invaluable
resource for the planning and execution of the most expeditious and cost-effective
relocation possible.

Q: What should we expect when we request an office moving estimate?
A: We believe the first thing is to see a bio or resume of the company or
companies that are providing you an estimate, to ensure that they have the necessary
experience needed to accommodate your needs. The surveyor needs to thoroughly view
all areas being affected by the move, including doing a destination site visit (prior
to providing you with a proposal). The proposal should be presented to you so that
you can completely understand its content and get answers to every question or concern.
This proposal should include a specific scope of work or services that will be provided
and a cost breakdown that will reflect all charges applicable to your move.
