Services
Office Relocation
Our comprehensive office relocation service manages every aspect of business moves, from pre-planning to final setup. We specialise in minimising operational disruption for clients across finance, healthcare, and education sectors. With dedicated project managers and on-site teams for ongoing clients, we handle furniture, IT infrastructure, and AV equipment while maintaining strict health and safety standards. Our digital asset tracking ensures complete inventory control throughout the process.
IT Equipment Moves
Specialist IT relocation service protects critical technology assets during transit. We implement detailed project plans to ensure zero data loss, using GPS-tracked vehicles and anti-static packaging. Our team coordinates with client IT departments to maintain server integrity and recreate exact workstation configurations. This includes comprehensive audits, secure storage options, and post-move technical support to guarantee full system functionality at the new location.
Furniture Management
End-to-end furniture management solution optimises workspace assets through digital audits and strategic planning. Our AssetLOOK system provides detailed inventory tracking of location, condition, and age. We offer sustainable solutions including refurbishment, resale, and charitable donation programs. The service reduces costs by identifying redundant assets and implementing efficient storage strategies, while our proprietary moving equipment ensures damage-free transportation of all furniture items.
Storage Solutions
Strategic storage service combines secure warehousing with proactive asset management. Our nationwide facilities feature 24/7 access, CCTV surveillance, and climate control for sensitive items. We provide comprehensive inventory tracking and regular status updates to prevent long-term storage inefficiencies. The service includes condition monitoring, scheduled maintenance alerts, and exit planning to ensure storage remains a temporary solution rather than permanent overhead.
Technical Distribution
Specialist technical distribution service handles complex equipment logistics nationwide. Our white-glove service manages high-value items like ATMs, medical devices, and industrial machinery using trained personnel and purpose-built vehicles. The service includes installation, decommissioning, and network setup with minimal disruption to client operations. ISO-accredited processes ensure compliance with industry-specific regulations for secure and timely delivery of sensitive technical assets.
