How We Plan Commercial Packing & Unpacking

Most office packing goes wrong at the far end, when every carton is in the building but nobody knows which ones hold the supply closet. This service is built around one sheet: a label plan made from your new floor plan. Each room gets a name or number, each desk a seat code, and each cabinet or shelf a letter. Every carton we pack carries all three, so the crew unloading it knows exactly where it goes.

The work runs in this order. Your office manager marks up the new plan and decides who packs what. Usually staff pack their own desks and personal items, and our crew packs the shared areas: supply closets, the break room, reference shelves, reception, the workroom, and file cabinets not moving full. We deliver cartons, tape, and labels ahead of time, from our packing supplies. On move day the crew seals and loads the rest. At the new office, cartons go straight to their rooms, and on request our crew unpacks shared areas onto the shelves the labels name, then takes the empties away.

Who usually signs off
Office manager or facilities coordinator who approves the new floor plan, packing boundaries, and room assignments
Timing that works
Shared rooms get packed ahead of move day, desks on the last afternoon, and unpacking follows delivery room by room, with weekends on request.

What typically moves

  • Supply-closet stock Packed shelf by shelf, with shelf letters on the carton, so the closet goes back in the order people already know.
  • Reference binders and manuals Packed spine up in book cartons, in shelf order, and marked with the bookcase and shelf they return to.
  • Break-room dishes, mugs, and small appliances Breakables are wrapped and cartoned apart from the coffee maker and microwave, which travel in their own boxes.
  • Reception forms and counter supplies Grouped by station, so the front desk can open without searching through general cartons.
  • Conference-room cables, remotes, and adapters Bagged and cartoned by room, because shared-room cables are the first thing to go missing in a move.
  • Workroom paper stock and mailing supplies Heavy reams go in small cartons so each box stays liftable, marked for the new workroom shelves.

Access and scheduling

Packing shared rooms takes longer than most offices expect, so start it before the desks. Supply closets, bookcases, and the workroom get packed ahead of move day, leaving each room with a short list of what staff still need. Staff pack their own desks on the last afternoon, with cartons and labels already at each seat.

At the new building, unpacking only works if the room is ready: furniture set, shelves installed, and the path clear. If installers or painters are still working, your facilities contact picks a holding room and we mark those cartons for it. Some Colorado Springs buildings limit carts in the lobby or require our insurance certificate, which we send before the date is held. On request, unpacking continues into the evening or over a Saturday, so staff return to rooms that are already put away.

Protection and handling

Packing for an office is mostly about weight and order. Book cartons are used for anything dense, so no box is too heavy to carry safely. Breakables are wrapped and cartons are filled so contents do not shift. Every carton is labeled on two sides and the top, which keeps the label readable in a stack.

Your staff decide what is private. Anything confidential, such as personnel files, client documents, and checks, should be sealed by the people who own it, and our crew moves those cartons as they are handed over without opening them. When we unpack, we empty only what the plan says we can: shared rooms, shelves, and supply areas. Personal desks stay packed for their owners. Empty cartons and paper go out with the crew, and anything reusable can be left flat for your next move.

Who does what

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

Destination labels and room priorities
Your office manager approves room names, seat codes, and which rooms are unpacked first. Our crew packs, labels, delivers, and unpacks to that plan.
Confidential and personal contents
Staff pack and seal their own desks and anything confidential. We move those cartons sealed and leave them for their owners.
Computers and network setup
Our crew unplugs and reconnects desk equipment. Your IT contact handles network service, logins, and testing.

Not part of our work

  • Sorting, shredding, or deciding what to keep; your team decides before a carton is closed.
  • Opening cartons sealed by staff or unpacking personal desks.

Around Colorado Springs and El Paso County

A downtown Colorado Springs suite off Tejon Street may have a small freight elevator and a strict lobby, so cartons move on carts in tight loads. An office park suite off Garden of the Gods Road or along the Powers corridor may have a dock and room to stage. Either way, the label plan is what gets cartons to the right room, and it works the same for a move north to Castle Rock or Monument.

Commercial Packing & Unpacking FAQs

Another question? Call (719) 357-5865.

How should we number cartons when desk assignments change at the new office?

Use the seats on the new plan and ignore the old desk numbers. Your office manager gives every new seat and shared room a code, then maps each person to their new seat. We print that code on the label, so a carton goes where its owner will sit. If assignments change late, update the map before delivery.

Can you unpack the supply closet onto specific shelves instead of leaving cartons in the room?

Yes, when the shelves are up and your plan gives each shelf a letter. We pack by shelf at the old office and mark the same letter on each carton, then put contents back in that order. Your office manager should settle any shelf changes before unpacking so the crew follows the layout staff expect.

What should employees keep out of their cartons on the last day?

Anything they need before they sit down at the new desk: laptop, charger, keys, badge, medications, and the day's paperwork. We suggest a bag or small tote each person carries themselves. Everything else in the desk goes into cartons labeled with their new seat.

Do we have to buy boxes, or can you supply them?

We can supply cartons, book boxes, tape, labels, and packing paper before move day. Offices that pack themselves can pick up only what they need. Tell us roughly how many desks and shared rooms you have, and we will suggest a starting count and bring more if the job needs them.
