Frequently Asked Questions
These
are a few of the questions that we are most frequently
asked about our services and our process:
How can you save me both time and
money?
Since
the books remain on the shelves, there is no dismantling
and no packing and unpacking of collections. This not only
saves you valuable reshelving time, it also saves you both
time and effort scheduling periods of closure.
Will I need to move my books?
No,
the collections remain on the shelves, or gondolas.
We have some very valuable books. Should I move them
out of the way?
Rest
assured that there is absolutely no reason to move valuable
collections. Our unique equipment gently lifts shelves and
gondolas, and the entire stack is moved in one smooth,
fluid motion. Your valuable books are completely safe.
Will my carpeting be damaged?
Not
in the least! There are 5” wheels on the moving equipment
evenly distributing the weight of the shelves, eliminating
any possible damage to the carpet.
Will the books fall off the shelves?
Since
your shelving will be picked up slowly and evenly, there is
absolutely no danger of any books falling off the shelves.
How much lead time is required?
Preplanning
is the key to any successful move. As soon as the carpet is
selected, meetings should be sheduled between the library,
the carpet layers and Professional Library Lift Movers..
