Moving protects belongings and keeps projects flowing—whether shifting rooms for construction, storing items temporarily, or delivering everything to a new address. Packing, protection, and placement are planned so the day runs smoothly and without damage.

Overview

• Scope: packing and unpacking, in-house moves for remodels, load/transport/delivery, short-term storage, and placement with debris removal.
• Goals: clean protection, accurate labeling, safe carries, and furniture set exactly where it’s needed.
• Settings: occupied remodels, move-outs/move-backs, local residential moves, small office relocations.

What This Service Includes

• Packing & protection: room-by-room boxing, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble and foam for fragile items, furniture pads and stretch wrap, custom crating for art and glass.
• Disassembly & setup: beds, tables, mirrors, and shelving disassembled and reassembled; hardware bagged and labeled.
• On-site shuffles: temporary moves to garage, pod, or other rooms to clear work zones; staged returns after construction.
• Loading & transport: dollies, hand trucks, ramps, and tie-downs; clean, unbranded trucks; weather protection and route planning.
• Storage: short-term vault or container storage with inventory; climate options where needed.
• Placement & debris: furniture set to plan; boxes placed by label; packing materials removed or staged for reuse.

Planning & Logistics

• Access: elevator reservations, dock times, parking permits, and clear pathways coordinated in advance.

Standards & Practices

• Lifting techniques and team carries prioritized; straps and forearm forklifts used to reduce strain.
• Boxes weight-managed and marked “fragile,” “this side up,” and by destination room.
• Tie-downs and load bars secure items; blankets fully wrap furniture to prevent scuffs.
• Clean trucks and pads; no loose hardware—bagged and taped to the item or placed in a labeled kit.

Sequencing & Coordination

• During remodel: on-site shuffles to keep trades moving; protection maintained for occupied zones.

• Coordination with GC for timing, access, and staging zones; with electricians/plumbers for appliance reconnects.
