Phillips is pleased to offer top quality service to move your company or office
within
the GTA. Your representative will conduct a survey at your office, and go
over the details carefully with you. A detailed map of your new layout
will make your move more efficient. You will be provided with labels and
instructions for proper labelling.
We know that minimizing your downtime is high on your list of priorities, and
organization is the key.
Phillips Moving has moved the offices of Aventis Consulting, CHUM, CityTV, Toronto Theatre Alliance, and
KPMB Architects, Czech Airlines, Crawford Technology, Academy of Learning,
Theatre Direct, Terraquip, Lord Cultural to name just a few of the larger scaled office and
corporate moves. Small, affordable office moves can be arranged too.
We get repeat and referral calls from the offices we have moved, so you know our clients
are happy with our office moving service, and you can depend on us to do
our best to make your move smooth and efficient.
Filing Cabinets:
Unless the move involves a stair carry, conventional or 2 drawer filing cabinets can be moved with the contents inside, but all breakables removed.
Contents of 4 drawer, lateral, or wall filing cabinets must be removed and properly packed.
Computers and specialized equipment:
Consult the manufacturer or supplier - in most cases this equipment will require servicing before and after the move.
Labelling:
Prepare a floor plan of your new premises and employ a labelling system.
We will gladly assist you.
Colour-coded labels will make the move go smoothly and quickly.
Labelling tips:
Desks should be labelled on the top surface of the desk on the far right corner.
Label chairs at the top on the back. Chair cushions should also be
labelled.
Filing cabinets should be labelled on the front of the top drawer. All sections of the sectional filing cabinets should be
labelled.
Each section of bookcases should be labelled on the upper front surface.
Mark all components of furniture which may become separated during the
move.
Filing cabinets in rows should be labelled consecutively to avoid
re-handling.
Packing:
A complete packing job is essential for an efficient move. Our experienced
professional packers are available on a time plus materials rate.
Cartons, tape and bubble wrap are available for purchase, and we will arrange delivery
for you.
Stationery and supplies stored in cabinets must be packed.
The bottom of each carton must be properly taped.
Fill cartons to the top and tape securely. Do not over-fill the cartons as they will be stacked during transit.
Pictures and mirrors must be taken down and leaned against the walls.
Special cartons will be brought on moving day to transport them safely.
General Suggestions:
Make arrangements for uninterrupted elevator service at both your origin and destination. Our representative will advise you on elevator requirements.
Rugs should be taken up and re-laid in advance.
Water coolers, pencil sharpeners and other fixtures should be removed from the walls before the time of the move.
Limit your own personnel just enough to maintain proper liaison with our supervisor.
Employee cars and company vehicles must be removed from loading and unloading zones. Trucks require a large area for backing up and turning.
Desks:
We will need to tip your desk on end so that it can be moved on a dolly. We
suggest that you:
empty drawers and place the contents in a carton,
wrap breakables in paper before packing in cartons,
gather small items such as pins, paper clips in an envelope, and
bundle papers, pens, and other loose items together with a rubber band.
Bookcases:
All books, papers and breakables should be removed and packed in boxes or
bins prior to moving day.
Remember, experience isn't expensive, it's priceless.
