Planning to Move?

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO MOVE...

The proper procedure to schedule a move is to submit a work request detailing what items you will be moving and where you will be moving from (old location) to new location. Please follow the guidelines as listed below.

  • You are responsible for locating boxes for the move. The bookstore often has a supply available and the other resources are Kimbel Library, area bookstores and retail stores. Please do not use food boxes, they may contain pests.
  • Pack all loose articles in boxes. Tape and label them with name and new location (building/room number).
  • Remove all files, etc. from filing cabinets and pack in boxes.
  • Have all packing complete by date of move.
  • Have someone at old location to provide any special instructions regarding items that you are requesting to move.
  • Have someone at new location to direct placement of furniture when it arrives or submit a furniture setup as an attachment to your work request.
  • Make sure a clear path (free of people and things) is available for movers (for obvious safety reasons).
  • It is highly recommended that you move breakable items yourself.
  • Allow five (5) working days before move for scheduling purposes if permissible.
