3–4 weeks out: Book the mover, confirm building dock access at both locations, notify employees of move date and what they need to pack personally (desk items, personal effects). Request COIs from your mover for both buildings.
1 week out: Label every piece of furniture and equipment with its destination location (IT corner, reception, Conference Room A). Order labels, markers, and zip ties. Create a floor plan of the destination office and share it with the moving crew foreman in advance.
Day before: IT disconnect session. Each workstation unplugged, cables labeled, monitors removed from stands and staged for wrapping. Leave computer CPUs and servers for last — they're the first thing needed at the destination.
Start with the server room or IT closet — if that arrives and connects first, your IT team has time to troubleshoot while the rest of the office is still being set up. Desks and chairs last — they're the easiest to place and require no connection logistics.
Most commercial buildings in DTLA, Century City, and the Wilshire corridor require loading dock reservations (book 1 week out), freight elevator access windows, and COIs from the mover. Some have specific truck length restrictions on underground dock ramps. Confirm all of this with building management before the move date.
Call (213) 676-9460 for a commercial office move quote — tell us the number of workstations, both addresses, and your preferred weekend.
A small office (10–15 desks) moves for $800–$1,800, typically over a weekend. A larger office (30–50 workstations) runs $2,000–$4,000+ depending on IT equipment, server handling, and distance. Office moves are priced by crew size and time, not by weight.
Almost always yes for employee-occupied offices. Weekend moves eliminate business downtime and avoid weekday loading dock competition. Building management at most LA commercial buildings prefers weekend moves — dock availability is better and elevator booking is easier.
Disconnect and label every cable before move day — a 2-hour IT disconnect session the day before saves 3 hours of confusion on move day. Server racks require static-safe wrapping and upright transport. Monitors box separately from stands. Have your IT person available (on-call, not on-site) during reconnection.
