The Task
Fry-Wagner was tasked with relocating three emergency operations departments in a county near St. Louis, MO to a newer building about 25 miles away from the original location. The county was in search of a reputable commercial moving company that could pack, transport and disassemble/reassemble all shelving and furniture. It was imperative that this move be done in a timely manner and cause as little distraction as possible to the emergency operations employees, as they have a very important job, keeping the local community safe during an emergency. Fry-Wagner took on this challenge with eagerness to ensure that the move be completed by the target date.
The Project
The first phase of the relocation was delivering all the moving supplies and equipment to each location and their respective departments. A total of 230 crates, 94 bases and 1200 office labels were delivered on site, so the packing and disassembly process could begin.
The second phase of the project began a week later when our driver and movers officially arrived on site to begin the packing and disassembly process. Fry-Wagner crews disassembled shelves and office furniture while moving filing cabinets and loading crates/miscellaneous items onto our truck. This process was repeated for all three departments at their origin location over the course of three days.
We began, the third phase of the project the next week by delivering all furniture and supplies for the three departments. Our dedicated team carefully unpacked all the items and assembled the cabinets and office furniture to help employees easily transition into their new work-space.
The final phase of the move took place on the last day, when a few of our crew-members arrived to pick up additional crates and any other debris that may have been left behind on move-in day. All three emergency operations departments were moved successfully to the new location by the middle of November 2018 and are currently working hard in their new and professional work-spaces.
