An Office Move That Doesn't Cost You a Workday
For a small business, the truck isn't the expensive part. The day you're closed is. So we plan office moves for Friday evenings and weekends. Desks, files and monitors are set up and labeled when your team walks in on Monday morning.
Before move day we walk the old space and the new one with you, put a numbered label on every desk, chair and cabinet that matches a floor plan, and email our certificate of insurance to both building managers. Honestly, the paperwork is what holds up most office moves, not the furniture.
Call (401) 712-7770 to plan an office move.
Questions?Contact UsTypes of Commercial Moves We Handle
We work with small and mid-size businesses, usually 2 to 40 desks.
Small Office Moves
Desks, chairs, file cabinets, the conference table and the break room. Most offices under 15 desks are done in one evening or a single Saturday.
Medical and Professional Practices
Waiting room chairs, exam furniture and locked file cabinets. Records cabinets stay locked, go on the inventory list by number and never leave our sight between the two doors. Moving a piano for a studio or a school? That's piano moving.
Moves Within the Same Building
Moving up three floors or across the hall? We schedule around the freight elevator and keep your hallways padded so the landlord stays happy.
Office Furniture Moving and Storage
Extra desks and old files can wait in our climate-controlled storage until the new space is ready for them, or until you hire again. More on moving and storage.

How Much Do Office Movers Cost in Providence?
Office movers in Providence cost $215 an hour for three movers and a truck and $265 for four in 2026. A small office of five to ten desks usually comes to $1,300 to $2,400, and ten to twenty desks to $2,400 to $4,300. Elevators, loading docks, stairs and how well things are packed set the final price.
Planning an Office Move
Start six to eight weeks out. Book the freight elevator and loading dock at both buildings, ask each one for its insurance rules, and give your internet provider the date early, because that's the thing that's never ready on time. The day before, everyone packs their own desk into one box with their new seat number on it.
Computers and IT Equipment
Your IT person or provider should power down, unplug and label computers, monitors and network gear. We wrap monitors and towers in pads, move them in their own carts, and set them at the right desks. Servers and anything on a rack need your IT team on site at both ends.
Moving Offices in Downtown Providence
Downtown buildings usually want moves on evenings and weekends, a certificate of insurance before the elevator is released to movers, and short loading dock windows. A 26 ft box truck near Kennedy Plaza, on Federal Hill or in the Jewelry District needs a plan, so we settle the loading spot with the building before move day, not at the curb. For street parking, an emergency no parking tow zone permit from the city keeps the curb clear.
Desks, Cubicles and Conference Tables
Most desks travel in one piece if they fit the elevator. The ones that don't, we take apart, bag the hardware and tape it under the top. Simple cubicle panels come down and go back up in the same layout. Conference tables split at the base, and the top rides on edge in pads. Our crews of 3 or 4 usually set up as fast as they tear down.
Office Moving Checklist
- Six to eight weeks out: book elevators and loading docks at both buildings
- Four weeks out: get insurance requirements from both building managers
- Two weeks out: order internet and phone service at the new address
- One week out: label furniture with numbers that match the new floor plan
- Day before: each person packs their own desk and labels the box
- Move day: one person on site at each building to answer questions

Questions we hear
Office Moving FAQs
How much does it cost to move a small office in Providence?
A small office of five to ten desks usually costs $1,300 to $2,400 to move in Providence in 2026, at $215 an hour for three movers and a truck. Larger offices of ten to twenty desks run about $2,400 to $4,300. Elevators, loading docks and how well everything is packed change the time.
Can you move our office after hours?
Yes. Most of our office moves happen Friday evening or over the weekend, so your team works a full week and starts Monday in the new space. Evenings and weekends cost the same hourly rate. Book early, though, because building managers often allow only one or two moves a weekend.
Do you provide a certificate of insurance for office buildings?
Yes. Send us the building manager's requirements and we email a certificate of insurance naming the building before move day. Most Providence office buildings want one before the freight elevator or loading dock is released to movers. Ask both buildings, old and new, since each needs its own.
