How We Plan After-Hours & Weekend Moves

Some businesses cannot close for a weekday to move: a shop that sells every day, a clinic with a full schedule, an office where the phones have to be answered. For them, the move happens when the doors are already locked. We can start an evening move after your last customer leaves, or schedule the move over a weekend on request, whenever both properties will let us in.

The trick is doing most of the preparation during normal hours. In the days before, your staff pack their desks and personal items, and our packers can box shared rooms and back stock while you keep working. At closing, the crew arrives, disconnects desk equipment, wraps furniture, and loads. At the new space, the crew unloads by room label, sets furniture to the plan, and plugs the computers and monitors back in at each desk. Your IT contact tests logins and the network. You can call us any time to start planning, although crews work the evening and weekend windows your buildings approve, not through the night.

Who usually signs off
Business owner, store manager, or facilities lead who can approve the access window and release the space
Timing that works
An evening start after your last customer or appointment, or a Saturday and Sunday, confirmed against both buildings' access hours, freight elevator bookings, and noise rules.

What typically moves

  • Office workstations and desk equipment Packed during the day and disconnected at close; computers, monitors, and docks are reconnected at the new desks before the crew leaves.
  • Retail gondolas, cases, and checkout counters Taken down after the last sale, with merchandise boxed earlier by your staff.
  • Restaurant dining tables, chairs, and host stands Moved after the last seating once your kitchen trades have their own schedule set.
  • Clinic front desk, waiting-room seating, and business office Moved after the final appointment; equipment vendors handle anything clinical.
  • Conference rooms and shared-space furniture Tables and chairs moved by room label once the building's quiet hours begin.
  • File cabinets and records boxes Locked or sealed by your staff during the day, then moved first once the doors close.

Access and scheduling

Two buildings have to say yes. Ask both property managers for their after-hours rules: which hours the freight car is bookable, whether a building engineer or security officer must be on site, whether the loading dock stays open past business hours, and when drilling or other noise is allowed in shared space. Some buildings also turn off heat or cooling after hours unless you request it. Office towers and medical buildings usually need a certificate of insurance on file before any after-hours booking.

Someone from your business should be on site at both ends, holding the keys and alarm codes, and able to decide placement questions. If one building allows only evenings and the other only weekends, we split the move into a pack-and-load evening and a deliver-and-set weekend day. In winter, evening moves start in the dark, so outside lighting at both docks matters, and snow can push a date. We book a backup window for moves between October and April.

Protection and handling

An after-hours crew works in a quiet building, often without the property's day staff around, so protection is set up before the first piece moves: runners on corridor carpet, padding on elevator walls, and corner guards on the route. Furniture is wrapped at the old space and unwrapped in its new room. Tools and hardware stay with the pieces they came off.

Before the crew leaves each building, we walk the space with your on-site contact. At the old space, we check that nothing assigned to the move is left behind and that the route is clear. At the new space, we check placement against the floor plan and confirm the reconnected desks. Any damage found is photographed and noted with your contact that night, not reported days later.

Who does what

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

Building access, elevators, security, and after-hours HVAC
Your property manager or building engineer approves and schedules them at each address.
Network, phones, and user logins
Your IT person or MSP sets these up, ideally on site or reachable by phone that evening.
Plumbed, gas, or hard-wired equipment
A licensed trade or the equipment's vendor handles it, booked separately.

Not part of our work

  • Work outside the evening and weekend windows both buildings approve.
  • Promising that the business reopens by a particular time.
  • Network, server, or phone-system setup.

Around Colorado Springs and El Paso County

Across Colorado Springs, after-hours rules vary widely. Downtown office towers near Tejon Street and Pikes Peak Avenue often want the freight car booked ahead and an engineer present. Retail centers along the Powers corridor and in Briargate set service-lane hours around neighboring tenants. Medical office buildings near the UCHealth campuses have their own evening access rules. For a Denver metro destination, add the drive time to the evening plan.

After-Hours & Weekend Moves FAQs

Another question? Call (719) 357-5865.

How do we request an evening move after the shop closes?

Tell us your closing time and the latest the old building allows work, then check the new building's hours. We plan an evening start that fits both. We pack ahead during your open hours, leaving the evening for disconnecting, wrapping, loading, and setting up at the new space.

What if our two buildings allow different weekend loading hours?

We split the move to fit both. A common pattern is loading on a Friday evening at the old building and delivering on Saturday during the new building's approved hours. The load stays on our truck in between, and the plan is set so the truck is unloaded as soon as the new building opens.

Who needs to be present when a weekend load reaches the new space?

One person from your team with keys, alarm codes, and the floor plan, who can settle any placement question the plan leaves open. Your IT contact should be available by phone or on site to test the reconnected desks. The building may require its own engineer or security officer as well.

Can the counter stay in service until closing on move evening?

Yes. The checkout counter, registers, and anything your staff use until the last sale are the last items we disconnect and the first to be set up at the new space. Your POS vendor reconnects the terminals, and we place the counter and printers where your plan shows them.
