Lab relocation specialists for research, clinical and analytical laboratories across the UK. Inventory, cold chain, chemical compliance and phased moves.
Lab Relocation Specialists
A laboratory move is a compliance project with a logistics component. We run lab relocations for universities, biotech, clinical and analytical laboratories across the UK, from single rooms to whole buildings phased over consecutive weekends.
The plan starts with an asset register and a risk register, not a van booking: what can move, what must be decontaminated, what must not lose temperature, and what cannot be switched off at all.
What the Job Actually Involves
Asset register with criticality rating, so the instruments the lab cannot work without are moved and re-commissioned first.
Chemical inventory reconciled against COSHH records, with segregation and correct classification in transit.
Sample and culture continuity planned with monitored transport and contingency capacity.
Phased programmes that keep part of the lab operational throughout the move.
Benching, fume cupboard and safety cabinet moves coordinated with the fit-out contractor and recommissioning engineer.
How We Run It
Site survey first, covering access, floor loading, lift and door dimensions, and the exact equipment list.
A written method statement and risk assessment issued before the move date, with named crew and lifting plan where required.
Out-of-hours, weekend or shutdown execution so operations and trading are not interrupted.
Full goods-in-transit and liability cover, with agreed values recorded for anything high value.
Sign-off at destination against the inventory, with photographs and condition notes.
- Questions We Get Asked
How far in advance should a lab move be planned?
Six to twelve weeks for a full laboratory, mostly to book engineers, calibration and decontamination. Small instrument moves can be turned around in days.
Do you work with our compliance team?
Yes. Method statements, risk assessments, decontamination certificates and waste transfer notes are issued for your records before and after the move.
