Here are some Frequently Asked Questions about Commercial moves that you may find helpful:
School Removals Services
Schools call upon removals services when there is a need to relocate the school; or a department within a school, college, or university. Or even when a large number of desks, chairs, and equipment needs to be stacked.
For successful partnerships between an education facility and a removals company, honesty, dependability and reliability is paramount.
We fully understand that there is usually a limited space of time to complete a move, that each school move has its own unique requirements. We work well within this, with the utmost care. We work all around the UK, and we are based in Pontefract, Yorkshire. We cover all areas including the main Yorkshire centres of Leeds, Huddersfield, Halifax, Barnsley, Wakefield, Sheffield, Doncaster, Rotherham, York, Hull – as well as further afield in the region and neighbouring counties of Lancashire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire and others.
Should I empty my filing cabinets?
It depends on the situation. If you aren’t moving very far, then it’s probably fine for you to keep the paperwork in the filing cabinets.
If it’s a long-distance move, then you may be better off putting your files into the moving boxes that are specially made for such things. This allows you to stay ahead of problems and keeps things organised, while also ensuring that your move happens safely and securely.
Can I ask to sign a confidentiality agreement?
We understand that some moves include sensitive information. We have dealt with every kind of office and business move over the past four and a half decades, and we are very happy to have a confidentiality agreement so that we can keep everyone’s information and files as safe as possible while they are being transported.
We do everything possible in order to ensure that you feel comfortable with how your move is going to go.
How long can I expect the process to take?
It depends on your office space. Some offices can take just a few hours to move. Large offices could take multiple days to complete, especially if there are a lot of large items that need to be dealt with during the process of moving.
Many business movers are going to go with an “all hands on deck” sort of approach to your move. Residential moves only take a couple of people to get sorted out; office moves could have 6 to 10 different people putting items onto multiple trucks and taking everything to your new office. So, don’t be surprised if there are a lot of people, because that will help everything go much more quickly!
When we are talking through your move with you, we can give you an indication of the size and duration of the move.
How much notice does a moving company need for this sort of large-scale move?
Business moves take a lot of logistics, and you have to deal with a lot of little details as you’re trying to ensure that things go as smoothly as they possibly can. If you know that your business is relocating, it’s best to get in touch with us as soon as you know your own plans and timing.
