CG Moving has served Bay Area commercial clients since 2005. GSA Schedule GS-33F-0063X. CSLB C61/D34.
CG Moving Company holds the licenses and contract vehicles that Bay Area commercial clients actually need. The five points below come up consistently in commercial move decisions.
CSLB C61/D34 license no. 987530 covers both the physical move and systems furniture installation. Most office relocations involve both, and most moving companies are not licensed to do the installation half.
GSA Schedule GS-33F-0063X, DGS approved carrier status, and City and County of San Francisco approved vendor no. 96965 are on file. Federal, state, and city agencies can move without a separate procurement process.
The facility is at 1755 Mission Rd, South San Francisco, inside the biotech cluster. Laboratory and life sciences clients can confirm storage and staging at a facility that understands their operational environment.
Most commercial buildings in San Francisco will not release a freight elevator without a COI naming building management as an additional insured. CG Moving issues COI within one business day of receiving the wording.
Labeled floor plans, a confirmed phasing sequence, and a punch list at the close of each project phase. Chain-of-custody documentation available for file room and legal document moves.
Standard scope covers furniture protection, floor plan placement, building coordination, and COI.
Every commercial project includes the scope below. Items that are not included by default are listed separately so there are no scope surprises on move day.
Every commercial project includes furniture protection, floor plan placement, and building coordination.
Hard-wired gas, electrical, plumbing, and server re-cabling are not part of the standard move scope.
Each service below has its own scope page. Click any link for full service details.
Phased office relocations with after-hours and weekend scheduling. Covers workstation teardown, systems furniture decommission, and floor plan placement at the destination.
Racking systems, pallet storage, bulk inventory, and warehouse equipment. Sequencing keeps operations running across phased moves.
Servers, network equipment, UPS systems, and telecoms gear. Coordinated with the client's IT team. Requires advance site survey for power and cooling.
Short and long-term storage at the licensed South San Francisco warehouse. Online inventory access included. Available during and after the move.
Disassembly, transport, and reassembly of cubicle panels, workstation frames, benching, and overhead storage. CSLB C61/D34 licensed work.
Workstations, monitors, servers, and networking hardware. Pre-move asset documentation and post-move verification.
File rooms, secure document storage, workstations, and conference rooms. Documented chain of custody for files in transit.
Campus consolidations, multi-phase office moves, and large-footprint corporate transitions, assigned a dedicated move coordinator.
Commercial kitchen equipment, refrigeration, food service fixtures, retail displays, and point-of-sale equipment.
Analytical instruments, freezers, cold chain items, regulated materials, and documented asset inventories. Separate planning required.
Diagnostic equipment, exam room furniture, and reception areas, planned around patient schedule continuity.
Office and facility moves for federal, state, and city agencies, using GSA Schedule GS-33F-0063X, DGS approved carrier, and SF vendor no. 96965.
Every commercial move starts with a pre-move survey. CG Moving confirms inventory, access, COI, and IT scope.
CG Moving Company runs every commercial project through the same six-step sequence. The sequence is the same whether the project is a 20-person office or a 500-workstation campus consolidation.
01
Inquiry
Call 888-508-7838 or submit the online form to start the process.
For larger or multi-phase projects, the initial call establishes the overall scope and confirms whether a pre-move site survey is needed before an estimate can be prepared.
02
On-site survey
A surveyor walks origin and destination, confirms volume, access constraints, and building requirements.
The survey documents volume and access constraints, confirms building COI wording and elevator reservation requirements, and identifies any scope that requires licensed trade coordination (IT, electrical, gas, plumbing).
03
Written estimate
Projects are priced on a flat or hourly rate specific to the scope. Agreed before any work begins.
The estimate states the phasing sequence, crew size and composition, equipment, start and end times for each phase, and any conditions that affect scope or cost. No work begins until the estimate is confirmed.
04
Building coordination
CG Moving Company issues the COI, reserves elevator and dock windows, and files any required permits.
COI is issued within one business day. Freight elevator and dock access windows are reserved as soon as dates are confirmed. City of San Francisco truck staging permits are filed where required.
05
Execution
Work runs after hours or over weekends. Crews follow the labeled floor plan at the destination.
Crews work the agreed phasing sequence with protected furniture and labeled transit. Destination placement follows the floor plan confirmed in the estimate phase. IT team coordination happens in parallel if required.
06
Sign-off and punch list
Items are placed to the destination floor plan. A punch list closes each project phase.
The project is not closed until the facilities contact has signed off on placement in every area covered by that phase. Outstanding items from the punch list are addressed before the crew leaves.
Bay Area commercial moves involve COI requirements, elevator coordination, and modular furniture systems.
Commercial projects in the Bay Area consistently involve access constraints and scope elements that are different from other US markets. The three most common are below.
Downtown SF buildings restrict freight elevator use to weekday business hours or specific off-peak windows.
Downtown San Francisco, SoMa, and the Financial District impose freight elevator reservation windows, often two to four hours, and require COI before the elevator is released. Buildings managed by Kilroy, Boston Properties, and other major San Francisco landlords have documented move policies that must be reviewed before scheduling. After-hours elevator access is available in some buildings for an additional fee from building management.
SSF and Mission Bay buildings have EHS clearance requirements and COI protocols specific to life sciences.
The SSF and Mission Bay biotech corridors have building-specific EHS clearance requirements, access rules, and COI protocols that are specific to the life sciences industry. CG Moving Company operates from 1755 Mission Rd, South San Francisco, inside the corridor, and is on the approved vendor lists for buildings across the SSF and Mission Bay areas.
California requires a CSLB C61/D34 license for systems furniture installation above the minor-work threshold.
In California, systems furniture installation above the minor-work threshold is licensed contractor work under CSLB C61/D34. CG Moving Company holds CSLB license no. 987530, which covers both the physical move and the furniture installation in a single project scope. Using a separate unlicensed installer for the furniture component is a compliance risk for the client.
CG Moving issues COI within one business day for any Bay Area commercial property that requires it.
CG Moving Company carries cargo and liability coverage for all commercial projects. Most commercial buildings in San Francisco will not release a freight elevator without a COI naming building management as an additional insured. To request a COI: send the building’s requirements, including the exact wording for additional insured and waiver of subrogation, to the project contact. COI is issued within one business day.
Commercial move costs depend on project size, IT scope, modular furniture, and phasing requirements.
Commercial project costs are driven by scope complexity. A straightforward office move has fewer cost variables than a multi-department campus consolidation with modular furniture installation and IT coordination. Common cost factors for Bay Area commercial projects:
Total workstation count and furniture volume, including modular systems furniture requiring CSLB-licensed installation.
Number of project phases and after-hours or weekend scheduling requirements.
IT equipment volume and whether IT team coordination is required.
Building COI requirements, freight elevator reservation fees, and city permit costs at origin and destination.
Whether laboratory, cold chain, or specialized equipment is part of the scope.
Whether modular furniture is being disassembled, reconfigured, and reassembled at the destination.
Commercial projects are priced on a flat or hourly rate specific to the scope. A flat rate is agreed for defined scopes. Hourly is used when the exact volume or access conditions cannot be fully determined in advance. The estimate states the pricing model, scope, and phasing sequence before any work is confirmed.

Common questions about CG Moving commercial services, licensing, COI, and costs answered below.
Commercial projects are priced on a flat or hourly rate specific to the scope. A flat rate is agreed for defined scopes where the volume and access conditions are fully confirmed at the survey. Hourly applies when exact volume or access cannot be determined in advance. The estimate states the pricing model, phasing sequence, and crew composition before any work is confirmed.
Four to eight weeks is the standard lead time for most commercial moves. Government moves and laboratory relocations require more lead time for COI, building clearance, and coordination with QA or IT teams. Single-office moves can sometimes be scheduled in two to three weeks depending on crew and building availability.
Yes. Most commercial moves in the Bay Area run after hours or over weekends to avoid disrupting operations. Freight elevator windows in San Francisco downtown buildings are often 6pm to midnight on weekdays or all-day Saturday. The schedule is confirmed with building management as part of the building coordination phase.
Yes. Send the building’s exact requirements, including the wording for additional insured and waiver of subrogation. The COI is issued within one business day. Most San Francisco commercial buildings require a COI naming building management as additional insured before releasing the freight elevator.
Yes. Installation of prefabricated modular furniture above the minor-work threshold requires a CSLB C61/D34 contractor license in California. CG Moving Company holds CSLB license no. 987530. This covers both the physical move and the furniture installation in a single project scope, without requiring a separate contractor.
Yes. Laboratory relocations require separate planning for instrument decommissioning, cold chain, regulated material handling, and OEM service coordination. CG Moving Company handles the physical move scope and coordinates around QA and OEM requirements. See /biotech-lab-moving-san-francisco/ for full scope.
Yes. Permits for truck staging, temporary no-parking zones, and dock access in San Francisco are coordinated as part of the building coordination phase. City of San Francisco truck staging permits are filed with SFMTA where required. Permit costs are a pass-through and are stated in the written estimate.
