Q: What is the best way to move our filing cabinets?
A: We typically suggest partially packing the contents of lateral (wide)
file cabinets prior to movement (leaving only the bottom 2 drawers full or intact).
The vertical file cabinets are generally much more durable during a move and can
be relocated with the contents completely intact. Sometimes our customers request
or require that all cabinets be emptied prior to a move, in which case we will provide
employees boxes to pack or we will provide the removal and replacement services.

Q: The computers are by far the most important part of our move. Should we feel confident
with the movers relocating this equipment or should we rent a U-haul truck and have
the employees move all the electronics?
A:A certified office moving company is without a doubt your best decision.
They not only have the proper moving equipment, but they know the best ways to prepare
the equipment for the transition. The first thing to be accomplished, upon the technical
personnel’s equipment readiness completion, is to individually bubble wrap each
component, including the bagging (zip-lock type) of keyboards, mouse, cables, and
power strips. Then each piece will go onto a multi-shelved rolling cart which is
then followed by a shrink wrapping process which ensures equipment safety during
the transition from origin to destination.

Q: Why are office moving surveyors reluctant to guarantee their moving estimates?
A: Two reasons primarily.
1.) There are so many uncontrollable nuances that affect the total completion time
of a relocation i.e., dock or accesses being shared by others, elevators being shared
by others (creating down time), elevator malfunction, lack of readiness at origin
and or destination (spaces incomplete or employees not completely ready and unforeseen
weather and or traffic conditions).
2.) Office or commercial moving is a highly competitive business and profit margins
are extremely slim (there is limited room for error).
