Library Moves & Relocation
Providing The Finest In Library Move Service
Library collections, by their nature, are optimally organized and arranged for efficient location. A misplaced or misfiled item can hinder the overall operation. As a result, the move of a library collection is unlike any other relocation. Without strict adherence to overall organizational structure of the collection during the packing, transportation and unpacking process, there’s an increased chance of patrons being unable to find information when the move is complete. Therefore, a library relocation has little room for error.
