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.

Everything is wrapped with care to assure it will not be damaged in transit. Each box will be marked as to content. If professional packing is not used, most insurance companies will not cover the items being transported.

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.

Space is used economically to fill each truck to capacity. Small items are tucked in between large ones. If there is a large piece of equipment, it may require trolleys to get it into the truck.

Older buildings present specific challenges. Some of the doors and windows are too narrow to allow large items to fit through them. The men will take measurements beforehand to plan what to do about the problem.

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.

Decisions may be made to leave some obsolete items behind. They can be picked up by a local charity or discarded. All things are measured to see how they will fit in the van. A list of all items will be kept. That way the business owner can verify that everything is delivered to the new site.
