Frequently Asked Questions
What types of laboratory equipment can Weleski Moving & Storage relocate?
Weleski safely relocates a wide range of non-hazardous laboratory equipment, including centrifuges, ultra-low temperature freezers, microscopes, biosafety cabinets, incubators, analytical balances, chromatography systems, spectrometers, laboratory furniture, and other precision instruments. Every move is carefully planned to protect sensitive equipment throughout transport.
How do you protect sensitive laboratory equipment during a move?
Our team uses specialized packing materials, custom crating, precision handling techniques, and detailed loading procedures to minimize vibration and movement during transit. Every laboratory relocation is coordinated through a structured project plan designed to reduce risk and protect valuable research equipment.
Do you provide packing and custom crating for laboratory equipment?
Absolutely. Weleski offers professional packing, custom crating, and specialized protection for delicate laboratory instruments. Every piece of equipment receives the appropriate level of protection based on its size, sensitivity, and transportation requirements.
Can laboratory equipment be stored before installation?
Yes. We offer secure, climate-controlled storage, as well as standard short-term and long-term storage for laboratory equipment when your new facility isn’t ready or your relocation occurs in multiple phases. Equipment remains protected until it is ready for delivery.
How far in advance should I schedule a laboratory move?
Because laboratory relocations require detailed planning and coordination, we recommend scheduling your move several weeks in advance whenever possible. This provides adequate time for site assessments, project planning, specialized packing, and coordinating with your facility’s timeline.
