The Problem With Most Contractors
✕What You're Dealing With
No Clear Timeline
Without a structured plan, critical tasks like IT migration, furniture disassembly, and lease coordination happen out of order or get forgotten entirely.
Employee Confusion
Staff don't know what to pack, when to pack, or where they'll sit at the new location, leading to lost productivity and frustration.
Vendor Miscommunication
Movers, IT providers, and furniture installers arrive at conflicting times because no one owns the master schedule.
Budget Overruns
Last-minute surprises like elevator reservations, building access fees, and overtime charges blow past your original budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend starting 8-12 weeks before your target move date. Larger offices (50+ employees) should begin planning 12-16 weeks out to allow time for furniture ordering, IT planning, and building coordination.
Underestimating the IT component. Servers, phone systems, and workstation reconnection take careful planning. We recommend looping in your IT team or MSP at least 6 weeks before the move.
We handle furniture disassembly, transport, reinstallation, and new furniture assembly. We also coordinate with IT vendors and provide reusable moving crates. The only thing we don't do is personal item packing for employees.
Yes. We rent reusable plastic moving crates that are sturdier and more sustainable than cardboard. They stack securely, have lids, and are delivered and picked up on your schedule.
We create a phased move plan that sequences each floor or building to minimize disruption. We coordinate elevator access, loading dock schedules, and after-hours building entry.
We walk your current and new space, inventory all furniture and equipment, note any access challenges, and deliver a detailed do-not-exceed quote.
We work with offices of all sizes, from 5-person startups to 500+ employee corporate relocations. Every project gets the same level of planning and care.
