Planning a Tech Campus Office Move

On a Roseville or Rocklin office campus, the move is often a few hundred feet: one team leaving one building for a floor in the building across the lot. Distance is the easy part. Each building has its own badge readers, its own dock or none, its own elevator and often its own security desk, and campus facilities usually controls all of them from one calendar.

So the facilities team's rules come before the furniture. Which docks can take a truck and when, whether carts may cross the parking lot or must ride the truck, which doors the crew can use and whether security escorts them. Once those answers are in, the move becomes a series of short, repeatable runs.

The furniture is mostly sit-stand desks with motors and control boxes, monitor arms clamped to every surface, and rows of identical task chairs. Every station is tagged with its destination seat from the new floor plan, so a team that sat together in one building sits together in the next. Your IT group owns the network closets and everything behind each wall plate.

Who usually signs off: Campus facilities lead or workplace manager approving the destination seating plan and building access
Timing that works: Booked through campus facilities around dock and elevator calendars, usually one team at a time on a Friday evening or weekend on request.

What typically moves

Electric sit-stand desksLowered, unplugged and moved whole where doors allow; otherwise frame and top split, with the control box and cords bagged to the frame.
Monitor arms and desk clampsScreens come off first; arms are removed and bagged with their clamp hardware under the desk's seat tag.
Laptop docks, keyboards and screens at each seatUnplugged, padded and set at the destination seat, docked and plugged in; the wall-plate side belongs to your IT group.
Team storage towers and personal lockersEmployees empty lockers ahead; towers travel locked with keys bagged by seat.
Huddle-room tables and collaboration seatingTagged by room name, so shared spaces in the new building are set the way the booking system lists them.
Mobile whiteboards and display cartsRolled between buildings only where the path is level and shaded; otherwise loaded on the truck with casters locked.

Access and scheduling

Campus operators in Roseville, Rocklin, Folsom and Natomas tend to run moves through a facilities work order. We follow that process for dock booking, elevator keys and after-hours building access. Buildings on the same campus often differ; one may have a dock with a leveler while the next has only a front lobby, which decides whether we cart or truck between them.

Badges are the usual snag. Security may issue temporary badges to named crew members or assign an escort, and either works if it is arranged before the date. Campus landlords commonly keep our insurance certificate on file too. With those in hand, the move goes team by team, so only one group is offline at a time and the rest of the campus never notices.

Protection and handling

Sit-stand desks are the fragile part of a modern campus floor, and not for the obvious reason. Tops scratch, but the real failures are pinched cords, bent lift columns and lost control-box screws. Desks are lowered before they move, cords are coiled and taped to the frame, and anything that comes off is bagged to that desk. Monitor arms hold tension springs, so they are loosened the way the maker intends rather than pulled off.

Crossing between buildings brings weather into it. A cart run across an unshaded lot in July is hard on crew and equipment, so screens and docks ride the truck even for a short hop, and heavy runs start early. Lobbies and elevator cabs get floor runners and wall pads at both ends, and a crew lead walks every seat against the drawing before signing off the floor.

Who does what

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

Network closets, wall-plate connections and wireless: Your IT group or its network vendor. We place and plug in desk equipment; nothing past the wall plate is ours.
Badge access and temporary credentials: Campus security issues crew badges or escorts and updates employee access for the new building.
Power poles, floor boxes and hardwired furniture feeds: A licensed electrician. Desks that plug into outlets we handle; anything hardwired waits for them.

Not part of our work

Moving switches, closet equipment or anything in a server or IDF room.
Reprogramming desk height presets or desk-booking software.

Around Chico, Yuba City and Sacramento

The larger office and tech campuses sit in Roseville and Rocklin along Hwy 65 and I-80, with more in Folsom, El Dorado Hills and Natomas. They were built around parking, so building-to-building moves often cross wide, unshaded lots, which is why summer campus moves start early in the morning.

Tech Campus Office Moving FAQs

Another question? Call (530) 354-8089.

Can you move our team to another building on the same campus without mixing seat assignments?

Yes. Every desk, chair, tower and screen is tagged with its destination seat before it moves. Teams move as groups, so their furniture stays together on the cart or truck and lands in their new neighborhood. If seats change after tagging, send the updated plan and we retag before loading.

Who needs badges when the two buildings have different access rules?

The crew members working that day, for every door they will use. Campus security decides whether that means temporary badges or an escort, and we send names ahead when asked. Your employees usually need new-building access from security as well, which is worth confirming before the first workday, not during it.

How do we book a shared campus dock for a short transfer?

Through whoever runs the campus calendar, usually facilities or the property manager. Book the dock at both buildings for the same window, plus the freight elevators if either floor is above ground level. A short transfer can still fill a full evening, since loading and unloading take far longer than the drive.

Our sit-stand desks have saved height presets. Will those survive the move?

That depends on the desk model. Some keep presets through a power loss and some reset, so check the manual or ask your furniture dealer, and plan on staff checking presets on the first morning. What our crew protects is the hardware: cords, control boxes and lift columns.
