Planning a Dental Office Move

A dental office in Colorado Springs holds two kinds of contents, and they leave the building with different people. The clinical equipment belongs to your dental supply company or its service tech: chairs and delivery units, operatory lights, the compressor and vacuum pump in the mechanical closet, and the intraoral and panoramic x-ray units. That tech takes each piece out of service, hauls it, and installs and tests it at the new suite. Your own team carries the patient records, the controlled substances, and the instruments from sterilization.

Our crew takes the rest of the practice. That means the reception desk and waiting-room chairs, the business office and its file cabinets, the doctors' private offices, the break room, and the supply storage. We get the tech's pull-out and install dates first, then fit our truckloads into the gaps between those visits. Rooms carry numbers on the new floor plan, and our labels use the same numbers. For the broader clinic picture, read our healthcare moving page.

Who usually signs off
Practice administrator or office manager, with the owner dentist signing off on the days the office is closed
Timing that works
Close after the last patient of the week and reopen early the next, with a spare weekend held from October through April because Front Range snow can wipe out a Saturday.

What typically moves

  • Reception desk, check-in counter and patient seating Counter sections separate at their factory joints with fasteners bagged per section; waiting-room chairs are wrapped and loaded near the doors.
  • Business-office workstations and locking file cabinets Cabinets travel locked while your office manager holds the keys, and insurance binders ride in their original drawer.
  • Doctors' private offices and consult rooms Each room moves as one labeled group, with diplomas and artwork in picture cartons marked for their wall.
  • Break room tables, chairs and staff refrigerator Staff empty the refrigerator the day before; we pad it, carry it upright, and stand it in the new break room.
  • Supply storage shelving and boxed consumables Gloves, bibs, prophy angles and restorative stock are packed one shelf at a time, with a few days' supply flagged to open first.
  • Unplumbed operatory carts and freestanding cabinets Only pieces with nothing behind them. Drawers are taped and every piece carries the number of the operatory it will serve.

Access and scheduling

The tech's calendar sets the move date, so we begin there. Pulling equipment on the last clinical afternoon and installing it at the new suite are separate visits, and our crew works in the gap between them, often across a weekend on request. From October through April we pencil in a second weekend, because a storm that shuts Monument Hill or buries a parking lot on Saturday morning pushes everything back.

Buildings vary across town. Inside a medical office building near UCHealth Memorial North or in the Briargate and InterQuest office parks, a suite usually needs an elevator reservation, a loading-door time from the property manager, and an insurance certificate addressed to the owner and its management firm. A strip-center practice along the Powers corridor or in Fountain more often has a back entrance and parking shared with neighboring tenants. We walk both suites and measure hallway turns before settling on crew size and truck.

Protection and handling

Front-office pieces collect the most scuffs, so the reception counter, office desks and file cabinets are pad-wrapped, carried upright and set down on runners at the new suite. Our crew unplugs, pads and reconnects the front-desk computers, monitors, receipt printers and card terminals at their new stations; the practice-management software, phones and network belong to your IT contact.

Summer afternoons along the Front Range can bring hail and fast thunderstorms, so loading starts in the morning and cartons stay covered between the door and the truck. Anything holding patient information, the controlled substances and the sterilization instruments stay with your staff, who seal and carry them. Nothing wired or plumbed into an operatory is touched until your dental tech has taken it out.

Who does what

Some of this job belongs to other trades. The written plan names each one.

Dental chairs and delivery systems, overhead lights, the air compressor and the suction pump
Your dental supply company's service tech takes them out of service, transports them, and installs and tests them at the new suite.
X-ray heads in each operatory and the pan or cone-beam unit
An imaging technician from the vendor or manufacturer removes, relocates, sets up and calibrates them, and walks the practice through registration paperwork for the new address.
Nitrous oxide and oxygen cylinders and the manifold
Your medical gas supplier handles the cylinders, and a licensed installer takes down and reconnects the manifold.

Not part of our work

  • Patient charts, backup drives and anything else holding patient information, which your staff pack, seal and carry.
  • Controlled substances, prescription pads and the instruments from sterilization, which the dentist and hygienists keep with them.

Around Colorado Springs and El Paso County

Colorado Springs practices occupy a mix of buildings: medical office buildings around UCHealth Memorial North and Memorial Central, suites near Penrose on North Nevada Avenue, and retail pads in Briargate and along Powers. A practice heading north to Monument or Castle Rock adds a run up I-25, where winter weather on Monument Hill decides when the truck leaves.

Dental Office Moving FAQs

Another question? Call (719) 357-5865.

Can our dental tech's install visit and your truck arrive on the same day?

Yes, if the rooms the tech needs are cleared first. We unload the operatory carts and anything else bound for clinical rooms early, then set up the reception area and business office while the tech installs. Send us the arrival time and the room order, and we load the truck around it.

Can our business office keep working from the old suite for a few days?

Yes. We can move the clinical-side furniture and storage first and bring the business office over on a later evening, on request, so billing and phones keep running until the new suite is ready. We reconnect the desk computers when the office follows, and your IT contact moves the phones and network.

We are leaving a Powers corridor strip center for a medical building near Memorial North. What changes?

Mostly the building rules. A strip center usually has a back door and open parking, while a medical office building asks for an elevator booking, a dock window and proof of insurance before move day. Ask the property manager for the tenant move-in packet when you sign the lease.

Our practice is relocating from the Springs to Castle Rock. How does Monument Hill change the plan?

It adds drive time and a weather check. In winter we watch the I-25 forecast over Monument Hill the evening before and may shift the start to miss a storm. The truck is loaded so reception and the business office come off first, and your tech can meet it at the new suite.
