Businesses Experiencing Commercial Moves Made Hassle Free With San Leandro Moving Company

By Julio Riess


A business that is planning to relocate will find a San Leandro Moving Company that is competent and affordable. Two or more vans may be needed depending on the size of the company. For those businesses requiring temporary storage, everything is placed in large shipping containers.

The furnishings and equipment is protected with careful wrapping. For insurance purposes, the boxes and furniture must be packed by professionals. Each box is marked to identify what is inside.

Professional moving requires packing in a way that wraps polished office furniture in heavy quilted blankets. Breakables are packed in wooden or rigid cardboard boxes. Soft goods are shipped in bags or boxes.

A piece of furniture that is an unusual shape will be put in a customized crate. Inside the moving truck are wooden bars attached to the walls. Large or heavy items will be secured to those bars with webbing.

The way a truck is loaded conserves as much space as possible. Small or thin items are placed between large items to use all available space. Handling an unusual item, such as a piano, requires the use of trolleys.

Older buildings are sometimes equipped with small windows and doorways. In some instances a window is removed to fit a large piece of furniture through it. The movers measure all large items to plan how to remove them and where to put them in the van.

Prior to selecting a mover, the business owner will meet with a company representative. This representative will survey the job and estimate how much the move will cost. Usually the business owner collects three separate bids to compare prices.

In some cases, there are items that will not be moved. They may be donated to a charity or discarded. The items scheduled to be moved are placed on a list. The list can later be used to confirm that all items have been delivered.
