Whether you’re shifting a growing team into a new office, moving out of a warehouse, or relocating a retail outlet—commercial relocation isn’t just logistics. It’s about speed, coordination, and minimising disruption to your daily operations.
Here’s what you need to know when choosing the right commercial mover in Singapore.
A good commercial mover should offer more than just transport. These are standard services most professional vendors provide:
✅ Site Survey or Video Assessment
To evaluate building access, volume, and manpower needed.
✅ Packing & Wrapping
Including electronics, documents, pantry items, and sensitive office assets.
✅ Dismantling & Reassembly
For desks, meeting tables, shelves, built-ins, and even partitions.
✅ Labeling & Inventory
Movers will label boxes by department or workstation to speed up unloading and setup.
✅ IT Equipment Handling
Some vendors offer unplugging, packing, and safe relocation of servers, monitors, and routers.
✅ Transport & Loading Crew
Fully equipped trucks and trained manpower to handle the move efficiently.
Many vendors also offer optional services for a smoother handover:
🛠️ Handyman services (removing whiteboards, TV brackets, lights)
🗑️ Furniture disposal
🌙 After-hours or weekend relocation to avoid operational disruption
📦 Temporary storage if your new site isn’t ready
🧹 Post-move cleaning
For larger commercial moves, always request an onsite quote. Photos and videos don’t always show everything the mover needs to plan for—especially if your current site has stairs, narrow lifts, long trolley distances, or unusual layouts.
Some services may not be included in the base package. Clarify in advance:
🪜 Staircase charges (if no lift access)
🔧 Dismantling & reassembly
🛻 Long push distance from unit to loading/unloading bay
🗑️ Disposal or dump run fees
These small charges can add up quickly, so get them quoted upfront
A smooth relocation depends on internal coordination too—not just the movers. Here’s how your team can help ensure things go smoothly:
✅ Ensure Everyone Has Enough Boxes
Provide each staff or department with enough carton boxes, tape, and labels at least 1 week before the move.
✅ Label Every Box Clearly
Include:
This saves time and helps movers offload accurately.
Group pantry items, documents, and electronics together. Keep small loose items like cables in ziplock bags with labels.
🚫 Don’t Leave Loose Items Unpacked
Movers will need extra time to wrap them on-site, which may lead to delays or extra charges. Make sure everything is boxed, bagged, or bundled before moving day.
