RESIDENTIAL LOCAL MOVING

Our local movers are trained professionals that take great pride in their work and will take the utmost care when handling your belongings during a residential local move.

An Empire Movers seasoned Project Manager will work with your staff from day 1 to ensure proper per-move preparation. We will attend pre-move staff meetings, construction planning meetings and answer any questions your employees may have.

2. Tagging

The assigned Empire Project Manager will work with your staff’s main point of contact to develop a numbering & placement scheme for both the origin & destination side of your move. Immediately prior to the move we will then label/tag all contents on the origin side and hang destination placards on the destination side to ensure proper placement of your contents.

3. Move Prep

Immediately prior to the move our team of professional movers will prep your contents for the actual move. We will protect all furniture that requires it and disassemble all furniture that requires it.

4. Main Move

Our Project Managers will work with you to coordinate a smooth and efficient move to limit any down time for your business. We will staff the project properly, send ample equipment and building protection to guarantee a satisfactory move.
