Equipment that cannot be dropped, tipped or left unattended

A general mover is fine for desks. It is a different job to move a loaded server rack, a calibrated instrument or a machine that weighs as much as a truck. Our crews do this work every week, for technology companies, labs, telecom carriers and manufacturers.

How a move runs

3

Packed and crated

Equipment is packed, crated or strapped for the trip by the crew that will move it.

4

Moved by our own crew

From dismantling at one end to placement at the other.

5
