An office relocation means moving workstations, servers and entire document archives without halting the business for longer than a weekend. Moon Movers takes that job from the first inventory count to the last cable plugged back in.
Moving an office is more involved than hauling desks between two floors. Every monitor, printer and filing cabinet has a fixed place in the daily workflow, and even one lost day costs the company money. Moon Movers provides complete office relocation services across Chicago — from the first walkthrough to the moment the last workstation is reconnected and tested.
Why Hire Us for Your Office Relocation
Labeled DisassemblyEvery furniture element is tagged with its room and position number before it leaves the floor.
Equipment-Grade PackingMonitors, servers and printers are wrapped in foam and bubble film individually, then placed in padded crates so nothing shifts during the ride.
Weekend CrewsThe move can run on Saturday or Sunday so the office loses no working hours at all.
Floor-Plan PlacementDesks, shelving and equipment go to the exact spot marked on the layout.
A small office of ten to fifteen workstations usually fits into one working day, sometimes less. Larger floors with server rooms and archive storage may need a full weekend. The timeline depends on the number of items, the distance between the two buildings, and whether modular furniture needs to be taken apart. A dispatcher estimates the hours after a walkthrough of the space.
Yes, and most clients choose exactly that. Moving on Saturday or Sunday lets the crew work without interrupting the staff, and the office opens Monday at the new address as though nothing changed. Crews run seven days a week, so evenings and holidays are available too if the building management allows after-hours access.
Each unit is shut down and disconnected. Monitors and system units are wrapped in anti-static bubble film and set upright in padded crates. Network switches and patch panels are labeled before removal.
Filing cabinets travel fully loaded whenever the frame and the elevator can handle the weight — that way the folder order stays intact. When the load is too heavy, drawers are sealed with stretch film and carried separately. Loose archive boxes are numbered and matched to a packing list so nothing ends up in the wrong room at the destination.
Workstations, conference tables and modular shelving are taken apart before loading and put back together at the new location. Each element gets a sticker showing its room, row and position number. The crew brings its own tools, so the client does not need to prepare anything on their end.
Two to three weeks is a comfortable lead time for most offices. End-of-quarter dates fill up faster because many leases turn over at once. Call even on short notice — open slots appear daily.

How Your Office Move Runs
Step 1 of 4
Survey & Inventory
A dispatcher walks the office floor with the facilities manager — counting workstations, server racks, filing cabinets and anything bolted to the walls. Door widths and elevator dimensions are measured so the crew knows in advance which pieces need partial disassembly. The walkthrough usually takes thirty to forty minutes and ends with a written inventory.

Inventory before the quote — no volumes estimated from memory
Disassembly & Packing
Modular desks and conference tables are taken apart element by element, each piece labeled with a sticker showing its room and position. Monitors and printers are wrapped in foam polyethylene and bubble film. Archive drawers are sealed with stretch wrap so the folder order stays intact during the ride.

Packing starts the evening before or at dawn
Loading & Transport
Items are loaded in tiers — heavy cabinets and crates on the bottom, lighter boxes on top — and strapped floor to ceiling so nothing shifts on the road. The truck size is matched to the inventory beforehand; a second run means the estimate was wrong.

One truck, one trip — the load plan is settled before moving day
Unloading & Setup
Each piece goes to the room written on its label. Desks and shelving units are reassembled, monitors reconnected, and cable trays put back in place. The crew checks every workstation against the inventory list and does not leave until the facilities manager has walked the floor and confirmed everything is where it belongs.
From furniture disassembly and equipment packing to transport and reassembly at the new address — every stage of your corporate office moving project is covered.
