Clockwork Removals were selected to relocate library collections to various locations in the newly-extended state of the art George Edwards Library. The fabulous structure holds more PC’s and study spaces as well as a host of other treasures including a new Library Cafe.

Core Requirement

•  Sequential packing, transporting and unpacking of 792 linear metres of library collections.

• Dismantling, moving and reassembling library racking.

• Relocation of  CD's, DVD's, scores and microfilms.

• Dismantling and moving all library furniture (library tables/chairs/workstations).

Clockwork's Solution

Our project team attended meetings with all key people at University of Surrey to formulate a comprehensive move plan. The following points were discussed and organised at the meeting:

• Logisitcs Details
• Health & Safety
• Routes and Access Points
• Crew allocation and resourcing
• Timetables ensuring minimal disruption to library operations.
• Cataloguing

The crew was divided into smaller sub-teams so packing and moving of library collections was carried out simultaneously.

Result

The reorganisation was managed within budget and within the allocated time and the new library was opened in early September 2011 as planned.

 '..the team were very helpful and efficient throughout each phase of the relocation..'
