Armstrong
Denver Relocation Company – Office & Industrial FAQs
How long before my move should I contact a mover?
The earlier, the better! Usually four to six weeks notice is best, if possible. Armstrong
Relocation can help you develop a move plan. Our vast experience and expertise will
save you time and money. The more lead-time you can give us, the more likely we
will be able to meet your specific delivery schedule.
Are the items being relocated fully insured?
Industry regulation requires carrier's liability at $.60 per pound per item. Additional
coverage is available on a per quote basis and should be covered by the
Armstrong Relocation representative prior to contract signing.
Do file cabinets need to be emptied?
All vertical files may be moved with the contents intact. All lateral file
cabinets must have the top two drawers emptied of contents. If ownership of any
lateral file cabinet is transferred, it is suggested that all drawers be emptied
at origin.
Can desks and credenzas be moved with contents inside?
Under most situations desks and credenzas are turned on end when moved, so
they should be completely empty for moving.
How are moving charges calculated?
When origin and destination facilities are no more than 50 miles apart, charges
are calculated on the number of moving personnel (supervisors, drivers and movers),
equipment, and the amount of time needed for the move (including travel time).
What day of the week and time will the move take place?
Most building facilities prefer Saturday and Sunday for office move-in or
out. Occasionally facilities will allow moving to begin after 5:00 pm on weekdays.
There is a premium charge involved with Sunday hours. Also, Armstrong Relocation
will provide crews on most holidays with the exception of Christmas and Thanksgiving.

How long will the move take?
Every move is unique, which makes it very difficult to provide an estimate
without a visit to your office. Armstrong Relocation would welcome an opportunity
to provide you with either a budgetary figure or a firm proposal after a walk-through
of your offices.
Can my employees assist your personnel with the move?
Armstrong Relocation’s primary concerns are safety and liability. Our insurance
company prohibits your office personnel from assisting with your move.
How should I mark things so that everyone gets his or her items back?
Armstrong Relocation will work with you to develop a numbering and color-coding
system to ensure every item is properly marked at origin, so that it is delivered
to the proper place in your new offices.
Will you disconnect and reconnect our computers?
Typically a company's IT team will disconnect and reconnect all electronic
equipment. We do, however, offer this service thru our tech team who would coordinate
with your IT department.
How will you protect the items being relocated?
Each moving van is equipped with moving pads, shrink wrap, decking bars and
has logistical tracking allowing
your shipment to be properly wrapped, strapped and secured before transit.
What size truck will you use?
Accessibility and size of the move will determine what equipment is necessary.
Armstrong Relocation has one of the largest truck fleets in the city of Denver.
We will assign the right equipment, be it tractor-trailer, bobtail, cube vans or
something in between.
How many men will you have on our move?
The crew size and equipment needed is determined by facility access at origin
and destination, time designated for moving, and anticipated furniture movement
and set up.
Will you dispose of items we no longer need or want?
Armstrong Relocation works with a number of companies, both locally and nationally,
to assist with disposing/liquidating excess assets, or the disposal of outdated
or no longer working equipment.
Will someone from my company need to be present during the entire move?
A company representative must be present at both origin and destination to answer
any questions that may come up during the move.
Will you take down and put up our cubicles?
Armstrong Relocation will provide qualified technicians to take down and reconfigure
your systems furniture.
Will you do the electrical work for us?
