How to Move Lab Equipment

May 25, 2022

If you’re expanding into a new space, moving, or consolidating laboratories, lab equipment moving can be tedious, costly, and risky; lab equipment can be fragile, breakable, and valuable. When relocating, expanding, or moving a laboratory, every detail is crucial. An important first step a laboratory must take is finding an experienced lab equipment mover. The use of a relocation service provider that has moved labs before will streamline the transition to your new lab location, ensure the security of instruments, machines, and other lab equipment, and provide your staff with real-time visibility throughout the lab equipment moving process.

Packing, transporting, and unpacking valuable, delicate items that are commonly found in a lab equipment move requires an experienced logistics company that truly knows what they’re doing. If you are looking to move lab equipment, you’ll need a team of logistics professionals who understand the complexities that come with this kind of move. They must have experience moving high value, sensitive, items. You’ll want to choose a company you can trust to get your items moved safely and securely to their final destination.

Lab equipment moving requires thoughtful, prudent, documented steps and includes many details that must be addressed to ensure maximum uptime during the entire process. All of the lab equipment has to be inventoried and great care must be taken in packing and transporting the items to their new home.

Lab equipment moves often involve:

CT Scanners
Instruments
X-Ray Machines
Medical Equipment
Temperature Sensitive Equipment and Freezers
High Value/Fragile/Breakable Items
Laboratory Furniture
Ultrasound/Diagnostic Equipment
Lasers

From the initial stages of planning the lab equipment move to packing, transporting and setting up your lab in a new location, the company you choose for this task must have a proven process and communicate with you throughout the entire move. They must use high quality packing materials with cushioning to prevent damage. Clean, safe vehicles and specialty lab moving equipment utilized by an experienced, professional team, will make your lab move as efficient as possible. Careful packing and unpacking of lab equipment, including delicate instruments, medical equipment, diagnostic equipment, and more, is the priority. You have to have a relocation team with deep knowledge in logistics and scheduling; a company that values your time and is dedicated to a safe, secure move.
