The Building Service Department of Physical Plant is committed to providing the Smith College community with a timely, efficient service in regards to trucking/office moves requests. In order for us to handle the numerous requests and to serve you better, we seek your cooperation. The following guidelines have been established to ensure that we can meet your needs.
All office moves, whether in house or building-to-building should go through Customer Service center at Physical Plant, x2400 or email ppsvcreq@smith.edu. Tuesday-Wednesday & Thursday are the only days we will do office moves. A week’s notice is required.
Be specific on items, i.e.; file cabinets, drawers, bookcases, etc….All items must be cleared off and emptied.
All items must be clearly labeled with intended destination (e.g. College Hall room #21) and may involve desks, workstations, file cabinets, etc…many work stations/desks are attached and may need a carpenter or electrician before the move. In most cases it is easy to tell if your desk/work station is more then one piece. If you are not sure request that a custodian checks it out ahead of time.
Please do not fill large boxes with books; printed materials, pamphlets, etc…keep cardboard box weight limits to 40 lbs. Cardboard boxes must be taped/secured on the bottom and not folded. The cross-folding flaps of boxes are not meant for heavy loads and many times pop open during a move. We will not be responsible for unsecured boxes. If need be we can provide up to 6 plastic containers for your move. These are great for books, pamphlets, ets….you must ask for these at the time you call. Cardboard boxes for printed material can also be provided. (For boxes call 2400 or special events at 2407). We will drop them off ahead of time for your convenience. The requestor must pack all boxes. We do not provide this service.
All furniture items destined for storage at Fort Hill must be pre-approved prior to pickup and delivery by the Purchasing Dept. at ext. 2240.
The Building Service Department thanks you in advance for your cooperation and hope this helps with your request. If you have any questions or concerns please call:
Brett McGuinness, Assistant Manager of Building Services at ext. 2419
