Moving equipment, whether across the facility or across the country requires expertise. Equipment is heavy, expensive, and can be dangerous. Injury and damage risks are high when shortcuts are taken in an effort to save money. The idea of moving a piece of equipment across the floor seems simple enough, but can result in high workers compensation expenses, voiding a warranty, damaging the floor, or ruining mechanisms within the equipment.
Costs
The cost of hiring Equipment Movers in San Antonio to move that one piece of equipment is much lower than the costs of any damage to the machinery or employee injury. Not all movers will offer services for a small job such as changing the position of equipment within a facility. Most focus on major and long distance moves due to the profitability.

Relocation
Moving from on facility to another can be overwhelming. Relocating professionals and technicians, making sure scheduling is arranged for both locations, and coordinating with the destination site to ensure compliance with local zoning codes is plenty for the management team to handle. Comprehensive services from Equipment Movers in San Antonio will make the process easier for owners.
A project manager is assigned to make sure the moving of the equipment and supporting components goes according to plan. Equipment is prepared for the move and loaded onto trucks with the right transport capabilities. That may be air-ride trucks for sensitive machinery, trucks designed to move heavy loads safely, and those for wide loads. The new facility is completely set up so equipment is ready to operate by the time employees are due back to work.
Timing
Careful planning means the move can be completed on time. The business will be shut down for the least possible amount of time required to move everything safely. Any re-calibration or millwright work will be done when equipment is in place. Painting of equipment is also offered to alter business names or logos in the case of a merger or acquisition. Consulting services to determine the new layout of the facility are available as well.
