We are relocating from 17,500 sf of leased space to 32,000 sf of owned space at the end of the year. I'm looking to speak with anyone who has experience executing a manufacturing facility move to discuss best practices, resources, pitfalls, etc. Thanks in advance!

Scott - in process with moving a manufacturing company - so far so good. We had great success with the SHM team: Bob Hutton and Kevin McCreary (Mention the Tecum name): ww.southhillsmovers.com/
They were super helpful with timelines, staging, finding used furniture/racking even layout ideas

Hi Scott - Good luck with the move! I managed all of McMaster-Carr's material handling products for a few years and learned a lot from different riggers and millwrights about moving machinery. Happy to share knowledge and offer some questions you might ask while vetting your team.
