How we plan retail & hospitality moves

When a shop, restaurant, or studio moves, the clock that matters is the one on the front door. Every closed day costs sales, and the date is seldom yours to choose: the landlord’s turnover, a center’s tenant rules, or a franchise opening plan usually sets it. We fit the move into whatever window you are given and aim to leave a floor that is ready to stock, seat guests, or open for classes.

Most of the work here is fixtures. Gondola runs, slatwall panels, glass showcases, mannequins, bar stools, booth seating, styling stations, and strength or cardio equipment each break down differently. Before teardown we photograph each fixture and bag its hardware with a matching tag, so reassembly at the new space follows the same order.

Landlords in Colorado Springs vary a lot. The regional malls and lifestyle centers on the north and east sides usually allow tenant move-ins only when shoppers are gone, spell out the entrance and hallway movers must use, and want a Certificate of Insurance on file first. Storefronts along Tejon Street, in Old Colorado City, and on Manitou Avenue often mean one customer entrance, a tight alley behind, and metered curb space. Hotels and event venues in the Broadmoor area plan around guest stays and booked events. Summer visitors heading for Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods crowd those same streets, so fall and winter weekdays tend to go smoother. If daytime work would block customers, ask for an evening or weekend crew.

Licensed trades own anything tied into the building. A plumber, electrician, gas fitter, or refrigeration technician disconnects and reconnects plumbed, gas, refrigerated, or hard-wired equipment. A walk-in cooler is part of the building, so it stays where it is. Liquor inventory stays with the license holder. Our crew handles the rest of the space, and we stage around the trades so nobody stands waiting.

Stock counts belong to you. Boxed merchandise travels in the order you pack it and is staged by department in the new space, so shelves fill aisle by aisle. Pick the kind of business closest to yours from the list below.

Retail & Hospitality Moving FAQs

Another question? Call (719) 357-5865.

Our mall only allows tenant moves after closing. Can you work those hours?

Yes, on request. Many Colorado Springs shopping centers restrict move-ins to hours before opening or after close and spell out which entrances and hallways movers are allowed to use. Send the move-in section of your tenant handbook, and we build the crew size, truck plan, and start time around it.

Will your crew disconnect our ice machine, espresso machine, or walk-in cooler?

No. Plumbed, gas, refrigerated, and hard-wired equipment is disconnected and reconnected by your plumber, electrician, or refrigeration technician. A walk-in is part of the building and stays put. After a freestanding unit has been released by the trade, our crew can load it with the rest of your space.

Is summer a hard time to move a storefront near Manitou Springs or Old Colorado City?

It is usually the toughest season. Visitor traffic toward Pikes Peak and Garden of the Gods fills parking and slows deliveries on those streets. Fall and winter weekdays tend to be easier if we keep a fallback date for snow, though your landlord’s move-in rules still come first.
