Free pre-move survey
A surveyor walks both your Hale floor and the destination, measures the lift, the doors and the loading route, and writes the inventory the fixed price is built on.

Office relocation in Hale
Office removals in Hale are won or lost on the hours nobody sees: the survey, the crate drop, the lift booking and the labelling. We move WA15 businesses out of hours so the floor is dark when we start and working when your team badges in, and every Hale office relocation is quoted as a fixed price after a free survey.
Large detached houses, Victorian villas and gated modern builds with stone drives. It matters more than most quotes admit — stair carries, protected floors and a shared lift can add hours to a Hale office move, so we measure them at survey rather than discover them at 7pm on a Friday.
We book the bay with Trafford Council, agree the goods-lift window with both buildings, and issue RAMS up front — the three things that stall a business relocation in Hale on the night.
Teams booking this in Hale usually add office cleaning in Hale and commercial cleaning in Hale to the same job. We run the same office removals crews next door in Bowdon and Altrincham, and across the region from our Greater Manchester hub.

Three steps, no downtime
Tell us desk numbers, floors and both addresses. A surveyor visits your Hale office — usually within 48 hours — and records the inventory, the lift, the doors and the loading route.
You get one fixed price, a timed schedule, the crate delivery date and RAMS for both buildings. Nothing changes on the night unless you add to the inventory.
Crates land a week ahead. The move runs evening, overnight or across a weekend, desks are rebuilt to plan and IT reconnected, so Hale staff walk into a working floor.
What the fixed price buys
A surveyor walks both your Hale floor and the destination, measures the lift, the doors and the loading route, and writes the inventory the fixed price is built on.
Lidded crates, IT bags, monitor sleeves, trolleys and labels delivered a week ahead, collected after — the first week's hire is inside the quote.
Evening, overnight and weekend slots so Hale staff never lose a trading day. Weekend work is priced in, never charged as a premium.
Desks, benches, pedestals, storage walls and screens taken down and rebuilt to your new floor plan, with fixings bagged per item.
Workstations, monitors and peripherals unplugged, bagged and port-labelled, then reconnected at the correct desk positions ready for log-in.
Goods lifts, docks and Trafford Council loading bays booked in advance, with RAMS and insurance certificates issued to both building managers.
Archive boxes, filing and secure records moved under a sealed, numbered manifest with a signed handover at the far end.
Old furniture, WEEE and shredded paper removed on the way out so your Hale lease hands back empty — with waste transfer notes.
Why Hale businesses choose us
No hourly meter and no day-of surprises. The survey sets the inventory, the inventory sets the price, and the price holds.
Every Hale office relocation is scheduled out of hours by default — Friday evening to Sunday for full floors.
Crews are routed from Trafford bases, so there is no travel surcharge and no 6am motorway gamble on the morning of your move.
Goods in transit, £5m public liability, RAMS, method statements and waste transfer notes issued before the move.
The person who surveyed your office runs the move and answers the phone on the night. No handovers, no call centre.
Move, clear the old floor, deep clean it and hand back the keys — moving, clearance and commercial cleaning all book through the same Hale team.

Coverage
Hale sits in Trafford, covered by WA15 and served by Trafford Council. The 1862 railway station created the village; wealthy Manchester families built the villas that remain. Hale Barns and Hale village restaurants, tennis clubs and independent schools. Its commercial stock reflects that: Large detached houses, Victorian villas and gated modern builds with stone drives. Hale village clock and the Bollin valley remains the local reference point for deliveries and loading.
Ten neighbouring locations we relocate offices in, each with its own survey team and the same fixed pricing.

The rest of the move-out
A relocation rarely ends with the van. Most Hale clients book the dilapidations clean, the handyman make-good and the office clearance for the same weekend, on one invoice.
Dilapidations and end-of-lease cleaning so the old floor hands back inspection-ready.
Make-good works, wall repairs, shelving, TV and screen mounting and furniture assembly.
Redundant desks, WEEE and confidential paper cleared and recycled, with transfer notes.

WA15, a few minutes from Hale village clock and the Bollin valley
The challenge: A live neighbouring tenant in the same Hale building, so noise and lift use were capped outside agreed hours.
How we ran it: Two vans shuttled on a fixed loop so the lift never sat idle, with a named move manager on site for the whole of a single Saturday, 07:00 to 19:00.
Staff logged in on the next working morning in Hale with every desk rebuilt, labelled and reconnected. Old furniture and WEEE were cleared under waste transfer notes on the way out.
the Trafford side of Hale
The challenge: Large detached houses, Victorian villas and gated modern builds with stone drives — the destination had protected floors and a tight turn at the entrance.
How we ran it: Two vans shuttled on a fixed loop so the lift never sat idle, with a named move manager on site for the whole of Friday 18:00 to Sunday 16:00.
Staff logged in on the next working morning in Hale with every desk rebuilt, labelled and reconnected. Old furniture and WEEE were cleared under waste transfer notes on the way out.

The challenge: Loading on a Trafford Council controlled length, which meant a suspension and a booked bay before a single crate moved.

“Adriano and Constantin professionally cleaned my flat at the end of tenancy. Both great and friendly, did an amazing job with the place and very quick too. Would highly recommend if you are wanting to avoid any further landlord end of tenancy cleaning fees and get your full deposit back.”

Answers before you book
A micro office of up to five desks starts at £420, six to ten desks from £650, and ten to thirty desks from £1,450. A full floor of 30–60 desks starts at £3,200. UK market rates for the same work typically run £500–£1,200 for a small office and £3,000–£10,000 for a large one, so we quote at or below the middle of the range — and always as a fixed price after a free Hale survey.
Link to this answerYes, and it is our default. Most Trafford relocations run Friday evening to Sunday afternoon so your team returns to a rebuilt, reconnected floor on Monday. Out-of-hours work is priced into the fixed quote rather than added as a premium.
Link to this answerWorkstations, monitors, docks and peripherals are unplugged, bagged and port-labelled by our crew, then reconnected at the correct desk on the new plan. For comms cabinets and server racks we work alongside your IT provider, who owns the power-down and power-up windows.
Link to this answerTrafford Council sets the loading, permit and suspension rules on these streets. We confirm the bay, the goods-lift slot and the dock window at survey, so the crew is unloading rather than circling WA15 on the night.
Link to this answerYes. A method statement, risk assessment, £5m public liability certificate and goods-in-transit cover note are issued with your booking confirmation, addressed to both the outgoing and incoming Hale building managers.
Link to this answerWe can. Redundant furniture, WEEE and confidential paper are removed under waste transfer notes on the way out, and a dilapidations-standard clean can be booked for the same weekend so the lease hands back clean and empty.
Link to this answerThree to four weeks is comfortable for up to thirty desks, and six to eight weeks for a full floor with phased IT. Short-notice Hale moves are often possible — we hold weekend capacity back for exactly that.
