001

Machinery and industrial equipment

We move machines within a production hall, between buildings or to another plant altogether. Loads of up to 30 tonnes are nothing unusual for us – we have the professional machinery skates and handling equipment for the job. Up to 800 kg, we move items between floors without major preparation using a hydraulic stair-climber.

We plan production-line relocations so that downtime is as short as possible. Transport between plants is handled by our own vehicles, oversize loads included.

002

Safes

We move safes for private individuals, companies, banks and government institutions – approximately 150 a year. Safes of up to 800 kg are handled without major preparation. Heavier ones call for preparatory work, such as a structural assessment of the staircase – a routine we know well.

003

Pianos: grands and uprights

We move musical instruments the way their makers recommend: properly wrapped in special covers, on a piano skid board and with equipment designed for stairs. They travel in a dust-proof box truck with a tail lift. On request we can also arrange a piano tuner we work with.

004

Fine art, sculptures and exhibitions

We inspect the piece free of charge, dismantle it and pack it in standard or made-to-measure packaging. We load it by hand or with our own equipment – forklifts, a loader crane, handling platforms and skates. On request we install the work at its destination.

§ FAQFAQ

The questions we hear most

How heavy a load can you move?

We relocate machinery and industrial equipment weighing up to 30 tonnes on professional machinery skates. Loads of up to 800 kg can also be moved on stairs without major preparation.

Can you move a safe to an upper floor?

Yes. Safes of up to 800 kg go up the stairs on a hydraulic stair-climber without major preparation. For heavier safes we first assess the load-bearing capacity of the staircase and prepare the route.

How do you move a piano?

We wrap the upright or grand piano in special covers, fix it to a piano skid board and carry it in a dust-proof box truck with a tail lift. After the move we can arrange a tuner.

Is heavy-load handling insured?

Yes, all handling and transport is insured.
