Office Relocation Services

An office move is judged on one morning: the first working day in the new place. If your team walks in and finds every desk set, every screen on the right table and every cable in reach, the move worked. Bhatti Movers & Packers plans office relocations backwards from that morning, in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and between cities.

The Short Answer

Our office relocation service covers planning, packing workstations and files, labelling every item by desk number, dismantling and moving furniture, transporting IT equipment safely and setting each desk up in its new place. The move is scheduled around when your office can close, so work stops for as short a time as possible.

The Monday-Morning Test

What Has to Work on Day One

Before we quote, we ask what your team needs on the first morning. These are the things that decide whether people can start work or spend the day waiting:

  • Every workstation in its numbered spot, with the right chair and pedestal
  • Monitors, keyboards and docks on the correct desks
  • Cable bags on each desk, so IT can reconnect quickly
  • Printers, routers and server racks placed where IT planned them
  • Files and cabinets in the right rooms, with keys handed over
  • Meeting room and reception furniture in place
  • Packing material and empty cartons cleared out

Our Labelling System

How the Desk Numbering Works

01

Number the Floor Plan

Every desk, cabinet and room on the new floor plan gets a number before move day.

02

Label at the Source

Each item at the old office is labelled with its new desk or room number.

03

Bag the Cables

Cables, mice and chargers go into a bag with the same number, taped to the screen.

04

Place by Number

At the new office, everything goes straight to its numbered spot, so nobody has to sort.

FAQs

Office Relocation FAQs

A small office of a few desks can often be moved in an evening. Larger offices take longer, depending on the number of workstations, floors, lifts and the distance. We plan the move around the window when your office can close.

Our crew packs, moves and places all IT equipment on the right desks, and labels every cable bag. Disconnecting and reconnecting servers, network equipment and phone systems is best done by your own IT person or provider, who knows your setup.

Every desk on your new floor plan gets a number. Each computer, monitor, chair, pedestal, box and cable bag is labelled with that number before it leaves the old office, and placed by number at the new one.

Filing cabinets can be moved locked, and boxes of confidential files are sealed and kept together. You can nominate a staff member to stay with them from loading to unloading.

Yes. We move shop fittings, counters, display units and stock, as well as office furniture, using the same labelling system.
