Upon your inquiry for a commercial move quote, your moving company will assign you a dedicated move coordinator. This individual will be your main point of contact, guiding you from the early planning stages to the final setup in your new premises.
Once you’ve settled on the estimate, your moving specialist will provide you with an Order of Service. This comprehensive document outlines all your selected services and their associated charges, ensuring complete transparency. On the day of the move, as items are packed and transported, they will be documented on the Bill of Lading. This crucial document serves as an inventory of what is moved, detailing the condition of each item before the move.
After the move is completed and everything is set up in your new location, you’ll review the Bill of Lading with the team leader. This step ensures all items have been moved safely and are in the expected condition. After you check the condition of your items post-move, your signature on the Bill of Lading finalizes the process.

When businesses decide to relocate, one of the initial steps is to obtain multiple estimates from different moving companies. These estimates typically detail the services offered, the timeline for the move, and a breakdown of costs. It’s essential to understand what each estimate includes, such as packing, transportation, and additional services. Once a company is selected based on the most suitable estimate, the coordination phase begins. “Typically, you’ll be assigned a move coordinator experienced in commercial moving, who will work with you to plan your unique move,” Moving.com mentions. This phase includes scheduling, inventorying items, and finalizing the move’s details.
At Yolo Transfer, we prioritize clear communication from the outset. When a business requests a quote, we promptly match you with one of our dedicated moving specialists and initiate a detailed survey of the items to be moved. Our estimates are comprehensive, outlining all services and associated costs, ensuring there are no surprises. Being a family-owned and operated company, we emphasize a personal touch, ensuring every move is executed flawlessly. Once the estimate is agreed upon, the planning and execution of the move commence, ensuring a seamless moving process. “We work with you every step of the way because we know how stressful and time consuming commercial moves can be,” our owner, Josh Tracy explains.

Handling sensitive equipment and confidential materials is paramount during commercial moves. Established movers employ specialized packing techniques and equipment to ensure these items are transported safely and securely. When it comes to protecting confidential materials, the Federal Trade Commission suggests, “Keep sensitive personal information in their files—names, Social Security numbers, credit card, or other account data—that identifies customers or employees.” Businesses must communicate any specific requirements or concerns to their chosen moving company in advance to ensure proper care is taken.
At Yolo Transfer, the safety and security of your items, especially sensitive ones, are our top priorities. Our team of trained professionals is skilled at handling delicate equipment and confidential materials. With a focus on precision and care, we ensure that even the most sensitive items are relocated without any issues.

Our storage facilities are also temperature-controlled, pest-controlled, and flood-controlled to ensure your items maintain their condition while in storage.

Commercial movers typically offer a range of services to cater to the individual needs of businesses. “Basically, if it’s part of a move, your full-service movers can take care of it for you,” Moving.com suggests. These services often include packing, unpacking, disassembling and reassembling furniture, transportation, and storage solutions. However, not all commercial moving companies offer all of these options, so it is essential to ensure your moving company can meet your needs before signing on with them.
Yolo Transfer is a full-service moving company offering a broad range of moving services, including local, long-distance, and international moves, warehouse storage, packing and unpacking, office moving, and even specialized moves like antiques, piano, and gun-safe moving with extended moving hours, including on weekday nights and weekends. With our extensive experience, we have refined our services, ensuring each move is tailored to the business’s specific needs. “Our team offers a variety of services for different industries looking to move with minimum downtime,” our owner, Josh Tracy, states.
Reviews play a pivotal role in the decision-making process for businesses seeking moving services. Reading reviews, focusing on overall scores, recency, and the company’s responsiveness is essential. “Find customer reviews on third-party sites like Yelp and Google Reviews instead of just reading the customer reviews that companies share on their websites; those are always cherry-picked and don’t fully reflect actual customer experiences,” Move.org recommends. A consistent track record of positive feedback is a good indicator of reliability and professionalism.
Yolo Transfer has built a solid reputation over the years, as evidenced by our A+ rating by the BBB. With an emphasis on customer satisfaction, we actively seek feedback to continuously improve our services. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our Google Customer Reviews and the trust we’ve earned from our community. We invite you to read our Google Customer Reviews to read about the experiences our customers have had moving with Yolo Transfer. “We take pride in our 5-star reviews from our commercial clients,” our owner Josh Tracy highlights.

The time required for a commercial move is influenced by various factors, including the size of the business, the volume of items to be relocated, the complexity of the setup, and the distance between the old and new locations. According to Moving.com, “The actual move should be done within a few hours and up to a day for local moves. For long distances, it depends on how many miles your belongings will have to clock in while on the road, which could take a few days.” For long-distance commercial moves, add an additional day for every 500 miles of travel.
Also, If you also request packing services, allow at least a day or two for professional packing, depending on how many items you need to be packed. The best way to know how long your moving services will take is to request a free quote from your moving company.
At Yolo Transfer, we approach each commercial move with meticulous planning and precision. Our team collaborates closely with businesses to understand their specific needs and create a tailored moving plan. We aim to ensure a swift transition, allowing businesses to resume operations with minimal downtime. In addition, we provide your estimated moving timeline in your free moving quote.

Before reaching out to commercial movers, businesses should have a clear understanding of their requirements. “To ensure a seamless transition, create a detailed moving timeline outlining every process step,” the Breakfast Leadership Network explains, “This timeline should include critical dates, such as when to start packing, when to move specific departments, and the projected date for resuming operations in the new location.” Being prepared in this manner allows the moving company to provide a more accurate quote and ensures a smoother coordination process.
At Yolo Transfer, we value clients who come prepared. Our proactive approach to understanding business needs allows us to strategize effectively, ensuring each move is tailored to the business’s specific requirements. Our emphasis on clear communication ensures that every detail is addressed on our moving checklist, leading to a seamless, efficient moving experience. “Don’t hesitate to ask us any questions at any point in the moving process,” our owner, Josh Tracy, clarifies.

Cancellation and rescheduling policies can differ among moving companies. One indeed article states, “It’s impossible to anticipate every possible roadblock that can cause problems on moving day. Building in extra time and putting a buffer in your budget for your move can help account for any delays or costly issues.” Understanding your movers cancellation and rescheduling policies upfront is essential to avoid unexpected fees or complications. Businesses should always clarify these details during the initial estimate to ensure they are not caught off guard later.
At Yolo Transfer, we understand that plans can change. We prioritize flexibility and work closely with customers to accommodate modifications or cancellations. Our transparent approach ensures that customers are always informed and never face unexpected challenges. “Commerical moves can be tough and the unexpected can happen which is why we strive to be flexible when it comes to last minute hiccups,” stresses our owner, Josh Tracy. For specific details on rescheduling or cancellations, please contact your moving specialist directly or call us at (530) 668-1007.
