Clinic, surgery and healthcare removals
Healthcare moves have to protect patient care, patient data and expensive equipment. A dental practice or clinic usually moves over a weekend so that appointments carry on as normal on Monday.
What gets moved
- Treatment couches and dental chairs (with the supplier's engineer)
- Medical equipment and IT
- Patient records and confidential files
- Waiting room and office furniture
- Pharmacy and storage cabinets
How to plan it
- Ask equipment suppliers who must disconnect, move and recommission specialist kit.
- Confidential records need sealed crates and a clear chain of custody under data protection law.
- Plan the move so clinical services are disrupted as little as possible.
- For care homes, plan with residents and families well in advance.
How big is your move?
| Size | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Small premises | One or two vehicles, often an evening or a Sunday |
| Medium premises | A survey, a written plan and a crew of four to eight |
| Large or multi-site | A project manager, phased moves and specialist equipment |
Questions to ask before you book
- Have you moved a business like ours before? Can you give a reference?
- What public liability and goods in transit cover do you hold?
- Can you work outside trading hours?
- Will you provide a risk assessment and method statement (RAMS)?
- Can you dispose of old equipment and furniture responsibly?
