Creating Safe, Healthy Workspaces: Office Reconfiguration and Moving from CG Moving

CG Moving assists Bay Area businesses with office reconfiguration, lab moves, and safe relocations.

CG Moving's Commitment to Health and Safety

CG Moving follows cleaning, sanitizing, and PPE protocols on every commercial and residential job.

We have always cared about the health and safety of our crew and our clients. When the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in early 2020, that care translated into action. We put in place rigorous cleaning and sanitizing protocols, equipped our crew with industrial-grade gloves, and as a show of solidarity with medical and healthcare workers during the early N-95 shortage, our team made our own cloth face masks. You can watch CEO Charlie Gonzalez getting crafty with a sewing machine in this video. The CDC had published guidance on DIY cloth face coverings at the time. The protocols we developed in response to the pandemic remain part of how we operate today.

Ready to Work, Even in Challenging Times

From lab equipment to group homes, CG Moving is experienced in high-stakes, safety-sensitive moves.

During the Shelter in Place orders of 2020, we reached out to clients and the broader community: we are here for you. There is always a lot of pride in what we do. Whether we are moving expensive lab equipment, helping someone transition to a group home or care facility, or handling a residential move from Santa Clara to San Mateo County or anywhere across the nine San Francisco Bay Area counties, our crew brings the same dedication. Because we are experienced in high-stakes, fast-paced, safety-sensitive environments, we were ready to assist clients even during the pandemic, and we remain ready today.

Moving During the Pandemic: A Mercury News Story

In April 2020, CG Moving was featured in the Mercury News for moving clients safely during COVID-19.

In the spring of 2020, reporter Louis Hansen of the Mercury News reached out to us about what it takes to complete a move during a pandemic. We had recently helped Mark Madrid, CEO of the Latino Business Action Network, relocate and he was also interviewed for the piece. Read the full article here.

How We Help You Reconfigure Your Workspace

CG Moving can help rearrange your office with partitions, screens, and furniture to promote safety.

What the pandemic made urgent, good workplace design has always supported: physical separation, better airflow, and thoughtful use of space. As you prepare your commercial office for whatever comes next, CG Moving can help you get there. Practical approaches that emerged from the pandemic and remain standard in healthy office design include: placing panels or partitions between workstations, preferably in materials that are easy to sanitize (avoid fabric); mounting glass or plexiglass screens to separate shared work areas that once relied on open-plan layouts; and using cabinets, file drawers, and bookcases as natural dividers on bench-style floors. Cafeterias, lobbies, break rooms, kitchens, waiting areas, and conference rooms all deserve a fresh look. Research from the University of Oregon and University of California-Davis, published in April 2020, pointed to the value of opening windows and improving air circulation in commercial settings. That principle has stayed in workplace design thinking well beyond the pandemic, and for good reason.
