Tips for a Seamless Move for Higher Education Institutions During Academic Seasons

At CRS Moving & Storage, we understand the unique challenges faced by universities and colleges during relocation. Here are some essential tips we can help with in order to facilitate a smooth move during academic seasons:

Strategic Scheduling

To minimize disruption, we coordinate the move during breaks or at the end of the semester as much as possible, like during exam season. This ensures a less hectic environment, making it easier to manage the logistics of the move without impacting the educational experience.

Clear Communication

Effective communication is key during a higher education institution move. This is why we keep all parties informed about the move well in advance. It’s also important for you to provide detailed instructions to faculty, staff, and students about the relocation timeline, new campus layout, and any changes to academic schedules. Transparent communication helps alleviate concerns and fosters a sense of collaboration throughout the process.

Comprehensive Inventory Management

We work with you to create a detailed inventory of all assets, equipment, and resources that need to be moved. This includes classrooms, laboratories, libraries, and administrative offices. A comprehensive inventory helps in planning the logistics of the move, ensuring that every item is accounted for and reaches its designated location in the new facility.

Technology Infrastructure Planning

Our IT professionals help relocate any technology infrastructure, including servers, computers, and audio-visual equipment. This way, we can ensure that all systems are properly backed up before the move as well. 

Environmental Responsibility

We prioritize sustainability in the move by implementing eco-friendly practices by choosing reusable packing materials, recycling packing supplies, and donating unneeded items. CRS Moving & Storage is committed to sustainable moving practices, and we can help higher education institutions minimize their environmental impact during relocation.
