Corporate office relocation Surrey teams rely on. Project-managed, phased floor by floor, and run after hours so your business never has to stop.
Honest hourly estimate. No obligation.
Moving a corporate office in Surrey is a project, not an errand. A single-office move is one truck and an afternoon. A headquarters move is departments that keep working while they change addresses, a server room that can’t be down past Monday, and a building manager who won’t release the freight elevator until the paperwork is right. Different job, different plan. Our Surrey movers have run corporate and commercial moves across the city for over 6 years.
The difference is the plan. We phase the move so the business keeps running. Sales stays live while accounting moves Friday night, IT goes over the weekend, and everyone walks into a working floor on Monday. You get a dedicated move coordinator who owns the whole thing, from the first walkthrough to the last crate. That’s who your facilities or operations manager talks to, one number, not a rotating cast.
We run our own crews. No subcontractors, no strangers badging into your office after hours. The same trained people who handle the biggest deliveries for IKEA, Cozey and Samsung are the ones moving your workstations and your gear. Pricing is time-based, billed on the actual hours worked and broken down up front. If you’re a business planning a Surrey move and you’re worried about downtime, that’s exactly the call we want.
A corporate relocation is more than desks and chairs. It’s the systems, the records and the furniture that make the business run, moved in an order that keeps the doors open. Here’s what a full office move includes.
We break down and rebuild cubicle panels and desks, and move monitors, towers and docking stations in padded computer crates. Server and network gear rides on anti-static dollies. We work to your IT team’s shutdown and power-up windows so hardware is ready to reconnect on the new floor.
Filing cabinets, banker boxes and archive rooms move in a tracked, labelled order so nothing goes missing and confidential records stay sealed. We keep department records together and set them down in the room your floor plan says, not a random corner to sort out later.
Executive desks, boardroom tables, reception millwork, lounge and breakroom furniture. The heavy, awkward pieces get the dollies, straps and crew size the weight calls for, and every doorway, elevator and lobby is padded first.
A single point of contact from walkthrough to the last box. Your ops manager makes one call, not ten.
Evenings and weekends so the business keeps running and you open Monday on a working floor.
We hand your property manager the certificate of insurance the building requires before move day.
The same crews that handle the largest deliveries for IKEA, Cozey and Samsung.
Your coordinator walks both offices, measures access, and confirms freight elevators and dock windows at each building.
We build the phased schedule by department, colour-code the floor plan, and drop crates and labels ahead of time.
The crew moves each phase evenings or weekends, protects the route both ends, and sets IT up first for the power-up.
Workstations rebuilt, gear reconnected, everything in its labelled spot. You check the time sheet, that’s the bill.
Real five-star reviews from our Surrey customers, straight from Google.
The guys were super nice and took amazing care to wrap all our furniture and not damage any walls. Arrived on time and took care of things efficiently. Would 100% recommend.
Great experience from start to finish! Abhi and Gary were professional, punctual, and handled my belongings with great care, making the entire move smooth, efficient, and stress-free.
We had great service from the guys moving our household to two different storage units. They took very good care to make sure the correct items went to the right place. They were very respectful, friendly, efficient, and capable. We were very pleased how they wrapped and packed our items. I would definitely recommend using them.
Every facilities manager asks the same first question. What will this cost? Our answer never changes. Pricing is time-based, billed on the actual hours the crew works, with the rate, crew size and truck count broken down before move night. We never quote a flat rate on a multi-floor move. The access and the volume decide the hours, not a number we guessed on the phone.
Before you sign off, you get a written breakdown. The hourly rate, the number of movers, the trucks, the after-hours window, all in plain numbers. It’s the same kind of breakdown we give IKEA and Cozey on their biggest jobs, and it’s why the final bill matches the estimate. Four things move the number more than anything else.
A 15-desk floor is a very different day than a 3-floor headquarters. We set the crew size and truck count to the number of workstations, so the job runs in one window instead of dragging into a second night.
A ground-floor unit with a loading dock is the fastest move we do. A tower floor with one booked freight elevator and a long lobby carry adds time. We plan the elevator windows at both ends so the clock stays tight.
Breaking down and rebuilding cubicle panels and desks is real hours. That work sits inside the hourly rate, never a hidden line. Plan on more time when the new floor is a fresh cubicle layout instead of a like-for-like set-up.
Weekend and overnight work is standard for a corporate move and keeps you open during the week. The tighter the window the building allows, the more crew we bring to finish inside it. We size the team to the deadline.
That’s the whole pricing story. Actual hours, a written breakdown in your hands before we start, and a final bill that matches the time sheet. Call (778) 242-2877 with your headcount, the two addresses and the floors, and we’ll book a walkthrough and give you an honest number.
Six years of Surrey office moves taught us what keeps a corporate relocation on time and on budget. Here are 10 things worth doing before our trucks pull up. Every one of them takes hours off your bill and risk out of your Monday.
The freight elevator at the old and new building is the bottleneck of any tower move. Reserve both windows the week you set the date. Surrey office towers hand them out in blocks, and evenings and weekends fill first.
Most property managers won’t let a crew past the loading dock without a certificate of insurance on file. Ask us for it as soon as you book so it’s approved days ahead, not argued about at 6 pm on move night.
Give each desk a number on the old plan and the matching spot on the new one. The crew moves to the number, not to a guess, and staff find their setup on the first try Monday morning.
Drop the e-crates a few days early and let everyone pack their own desk and label it. It’s faster, nothing personal goes missing, and the crew spends its hours carrying, not sorting drawers.
Your server and network gear sets the schedule. Confirm the shutdown and power-up windows with IT first, then build the move around them. A working network Monday morning is worth planning the whole weekend around.
Move the departments that can go dark for a day first, keep the customer-facing teams live longest. The business never fully stops that way.
One colour per destination room or floor, on every crate and every piece of furniture. A crew reading colour and room number unloads twice as fast as one reading a scribbled name on a box lid.
Every old cabinet and dead monitor you don’t move is time you don’t pay for. Run the shred and e-waste purge the week before, then move less.
A quick phone photo of the back of each workstation and the server rack saves your IT team an hour of guesswork on reconnection.
A single floor needs two to three weeks. A headquarters or a phased department move needs four to six, because building windows and weekend crew slots book up fast. Call as soon as the lease is signed.
Surrey City Centre is where the office towers are. Central City rises over King George Boulevard, 3 Civic Plaza and the King George Hub towers sit right on the Expo Line, and there’s a wave of newer office space around City Hall and the SFU Surrey campus. Those are freight-elevator buildings with strict move rules, and most of them only allow a commercial move after business hours. That single fact shapes the whole plan.
Take a two-floor tenant moving up the tower into a bigger suite. The building gives one freight elevator on a Saturday window. Our coordinator books it at both floors, gets the certificate of insurance to the property manager days ahead, and pads the elevator and lobby before a crate moves. Accounting and admin go Saturday morning, IT and the server room go Saturday afternoon so the network is up first, and the sales floor is the last thing down and the first thing rebuilt.
By Sunday night the workstations are back together on the new floor and the gear is reconnected. Monday morning, staff badge in and go to work. A move like that is billed on the actual hours the crew works, sized to the volume and the elevator window, and broken down for you up front. No flat-rate guess on a job this size, and no surprise on the invoice.
We phase the move and run the heavy work after hours or over a weekend. Your coordinator maps the departments that go first, the crew labels and crates by desk, and the systems that matter most are set back up ahead of Monday. The goal is that staff walk into a working office, not a pile of boxes.
Yes. Every corporate relocation gets one point of contact from the walkthrough to the last box. Your coordinator builds the sequence, books the freight elevators and loading docks at both buildings, labels the floor plan, and runs the crew on move night so your facilities or operations manager makes one call, not ten.
Corporate moves are billed on time, on the actual hours the crew works, with the rate, crew size and truck count broken down for you up front. We never quote a flat rate on a multi-floor move because the access and volume decide the hours. After the walkthrough you get a written breakdown, and the final bill matches the time sheet.
Yes. We break down and rebuild workstations and cubicle panels, move monitors and towers in padded computer crates, and cart server and network gear on anti-static dollies. We coordinate with your IT team on the shutdown and power-up windows so hardware is ready to reconnect at the new floor.
After-hours and weekend work is the default for a corporate move, not an add-on. Most Surrey office towers only allow freight-elevator moves outside business hours anyway, so we plan the heavy lifting for evenings or the weekend and hand you a working office by the next business day.
Yes, and your coordinator handles it. We book the freight elevator and loading dock windows at both the old and new building, confirm the certificate of insurance the property manager needs, and pad the elevator and lobby before a single crate moves. That paperwork is a normal part of a tower move in Surrey City Centre and Guildford.
We bring reusable plastic e-crates, library carts and a colour-coded labelling system keyed to your new floor plan. Staff pack their own desks into the crates we drop off, and the crew moves everything to the labelled room and workstation. Full-service packing for files and equipment is available when you want the crew to handle it end to end.
For a single floor, two to three weeks gives us time to walk both sites and book the elevators. For a multi-floor headquarters or a phased department move, four to six weeks is better because building windows and weekend slots fill up. Call as soon as you have a lease date and we’ll hold the crew.
Yes. Local Movers Ltd is licensed and insured, and we provide the certificate of insurance your building’s property manager requires before move day. Our crews are the same trained people who handle the largest deliveries for IKEA, Cozey and Samsung, so your equipment is in experienced hands.
