Packing and Special Handling

  • Desk Contents: Highland will provide you with colored labels to keep track of each item that is to be moved. Proper identification and labeling will speed up the moving process as well as ensure correct placement at your new office. Highland uses plastic office moving bins for packing files and desk contents. Although we recommend packing be done by our professionals, bins are available to rent if you and your employees wish to pack the contents yourselves.

  • Filing Systems and Libraries : Highland also has numerous “file carts” for the transfer of libraries and large filing systems. As well as reducing packing time, these carts allow for continuous access to your files and ensure a completely organized file transfer.

  • Computer Equipment: Highland uses special computer dollies, designed to protect and carry up to 12 machines at a time. Our air-ride trucks and special handling equipment will give you peace of mind when moving your sensitive equipment.





Third Party Services

Often outside experts have to be called in to perform special services. Extra large items may have to be moved on the top of an elevator, or particularly heavy items such as safes may need rigging and winching by professionals. We have established relationships with specialty service providers. Our moving consultants know who to call to get these jobs done most effectively.

Protecting Your Goods

Because of the many precautions we take to safeguard the contents of your office in our care, only a small number of our customers have a need to file a claim. We are nonetheless human, and upon occasion, mistakes do happen. We want to make sure you are fully protected during your move, so when moving with Highland , you can choose to purchase a valuation option that protects you, including special certificate insurance for high value items.

To help plan your office move we are happy to provide you with detailed checklists and FAQ's.
