How We Plan Cubicle Disassembly & Reassembly

Sacramento works at cubicles. Department floors near the Capitol Mall, leased offices in Natomas and at McClellan Park, and the tech and insurance buildings in Roseville and Rocklin all hold rows of panel workstations, and so do the larger back offices in Chico and Yuba City. Moving or reshuffling them is slow because each station is a set of parts that has to go back together square, on a different floor plan, with nothing left over.

Our crew keeps a written teardown order. Every station is numbered against the new plan and photographed before a screw comes out. Then it comes apart in the same sequence each time: toppers and overhead bins, worksurfaces, pedestals, panels and posts, and base raceways last. Each station's hardware is bagged, labeled with its number, and kept with its parts. Rebuild runs that order in reverse, station by station, to the new plan. The electrician handles power whips, the IT vendor handles data drops, and your furniture dealer takes care of warranty items. For a full relocation, see office moving.

Who usually signs off: Facilities manager or office services lead, coordinating the furniture dealer, the electrician and the IT vendor
Timing that works: Teardown on a Friday evening or weekend on request, public-agency jobs booked early around the June 30 fiscal year-end, and early starts through the summer heat.

What typically moves

Panel walls, posts and connectorsPanels travel upright in padded carts; post caps and connectors go into the numbered bag for that station.
Worksurfaces, returns and corner unitsUnhung from their brackets and moved flat with edge guards; the brackets join the same station bag.
Box-box-file and file-file pedestalsStaff empty or lock them; either way, keys are collected by station for the office manager.
Overhead bins and shelvesOff first and on last, once the panels below are level.
Base raceways and harness sectionsHandled as numbered parts. The whip from the floor box or wall is the electrician's.
Station computers, monitors and desk phonesUnplugged, padded and reconnected at the matching station; network and phone service remain with your IT vendor.

Access and scheduling

Downtown state buildings and the larger Natomas and Roseville office parks book freight elevators and docks by the hour, expect our insurance certificate in hand before they hold a date, which we issue on request, and often hold drilling to evenings or weekends. We ask for a staging area on both floors where panel carts can line up without blocking exits, and for the cab height, since tall panels that will not stand upright travel tilted, a few per trip.

Public agencies often reconfigure around the June 30 fiscal year-end, when budgets and space plans tend to turn over, so book early if your job lands in June or July. From June through September, crews start early so panel carts cross hot parking lots before mid-afternoon. For a same-floor change, we work zone by zone so most staff keep working.

Protection and handling

Edges and hardware take the damage, not the middle of a panel. Surfaces get corner guards, glass toppers ride in padded cartons, and fabric panels get a wrap so dock dust does not settle into them. Hardware bags are sealed and taped to their station's parts, never pooled in a common bin.

During teardown the crew keeps a station sheet: cracked surfaces, bent brackets, missing connectors, and any part your dealer may want to see under warranty. You receive it the same day, so replacements are on order before rebuild. On the new floor each run gets a level and plumb check before the overheads go up, and we walk the floor with your facilities contact so the electrician and IT vendor arrive to finished stations.

Who does what

Some of this job belongs to other trades. The written plan names each one.

Power whips from floor boxes or walls: A licensed electrician. Whips come off before the crew starts and go back on, tested, after the last station is standing. Our crew does no wiring.
Data drops and patch cords at each station: Handled by your IT vendor, who pulls them before teardown and terminates them once stations are standing.
Warranty items, new parts and the space plan: Your furniture dealer or designer provides the plan, orders parts and handles warranty claims; we rebuild to their plan.

Not part of our work

Wiring, circuit changes or hooking power whips to the building; that is licensed electrical work.
Space planning, component selection and warranty repairs, which stay with your furniture dealer.

Around Chico, Yuba City and Sacramento

Panel systems fill state agency offices downtown and around the Capitol Mall, leased floors in Natomas and McClellan Park, office and tech parks in Roseville and Rocklin along I-80 and Hwy 65, and back offices near the Chico Municipal Airport business park and in Yuba City. Many share docks and elevators with other tenants, so the building calendar sets the date.

Cubicle Disassembly & Reassembly FAQs

Another question? Call (530) 354-8089.

Our agency is consolidating two floors into one. Can the cubicles be rebuilt smaller?

Yes, if the new plan uses parts you already own or your dealer supplies what is missing. Smaller stations usually need shorter panels, new connectors or different worksurfaces, so we compare the plan with the station count before teardown. Unused panels and hardware stay bagged and labeled for your surplus process.

Who unhooks the power whips under our electrified stations?

A licensed electrician, since the whip ties the station to building power. They release it before the panels come apart, then restore and check it when the stations are back up. Our crew moves raceways and harness sections as labeled parts. Schedule the electrician for rebuild day, and the IT vendor right after, so staff come back to working stations.

Can you move our cubicles from Sacramento to a new office in Chico?

Yes. Station numbers and hardware bags travel with the parts, so a rebuild in Chico runs the same way as one across the street. The drive up Hwy 99 adds time between loading and rebuild, so teardown usually starts a day earlier, and we check the Chico building's access rules before booking.

Our panel system is discontinued. What if a part breaks during the move?

Older systems come apart the same way, but replacements are harder to find, so the teardown photos and station sheet matter more. Ask your dealer before the move which parts are still available or can be pulled from spare stations, so one broken bracket does not stop a whole row.
