Instructions for Moving Companies Performing Work

The following rules pertain to moving furniture, equipment, and supplies in and out of the building.

ANY MOVERS WHO DO NOT ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING RULES WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE PREMISES OR WILL BE REQUIRED TO DISCONTINUE THE MOVE.

  • Clean masonite sections will be used as runners on all finished, common area floor areas where heavy furniture or equipment is being moved with wheel or skid type dollies. Clean plywood sections will also be required when moving over “sensitive” floors (i.e. stone or tile floors). The masonite must be at least ¼” thick, 4’ X 8’ sheets in elevator lobbies and corridors and 32” sheets through doors in tenant space. All glass doors and elevators will be padded to protect exposed areas.
  • All walls, doors facings, elevator cabs and other areas along the route to be followed during the move will be inspected by the Property Management Office and moving company personnel before and after the move. The mover must provide and install protective coverings on all walls, door facings, elevator cabs and other areas along the route to be followed during the move.
  • Any damage to the building or fixtures caused by the move will be repaired or paid by the moving company and will be the ultimate responsibility of the tenant.
  • Only the service elevator in the building will be used for the movement of furniture, equipment, and supplies unless prior approval to use additional elevators is granted by the Property Management Office.
  • Moving of large quantities of furniture, equipment or supplies will be accomplished after 5:00 pm on weekdays or on weekends or holidays with prior consent of the Property Management Office.
  • It is the responsibility of the tenant to make arrangements with the Property Management Office for use of the elevators for each move.

The moving company must provide a certificate of insurance prior to the move, showing General Liability coverage of at least $2,000,000 and Auto Liability coverage of at least $1,000,000, Worker’s Compensation (Statutory Limits) and Employer’s Liability of at least $500,000. 

A sample insurance certificate may be obtained from the Property Management Office.

Every moving company that is moving supplies, furniture and/or equipment through this building shall secure and present to the Property Management Office a certificate reflecting these coverage’s 24 hours before the move takes place.

Employees of the moving company will not be permitted to access any part of the building other than the predetermined moving route.
