Lab Move Client – Therapeutics Lab
Lab Move Location – North of Boston, Massachusetts
Lab Move Timetable – February 2024
The lowdown
Humboldt Moving & Storage hired BTI’s Labmovers.com division to transport $7 million worth of samples and equipment for a therapeutics lab north of Boston, Massachusetts to its new location about one mile away. Humboldt hired Labmovers.com for its plug-in truck and plug-in service to safely transport multiple freezers set for -80° C, -20° C and 4°C.
Why it matters
Humboldt hired Labmovers.com for the one-mile move for several reasons:
- Equipment – There are less than a handful of movers based in Massachusetts with the equipment to conduct a plug-in transport of this nature. Labmovers.com is one of them. That equipment includes backup power sources in the event the primary source fails.
- Experience – Labmovers.com has conducted plug-in transport moves since 2019. The first of those was cross country. Labmovers.com knows the equipment and has established contingency protocols.
- Temperature changes – A temperature shift can alter the integrity of a sample. And that type of temperature drop can occur even on a move to a facility one mile away.
Going deeper
- Many truckers or carriers have a flat fee for plug-in service transports that start at $12,000 per day, or more.
- Labmovers.com conducts plug-in transport lab relocations in the same fashion as its other moves. After conducting a thorough inventory of items to be moved—including the cost for the plug-in transport– Labmovers.com provides an estimate. That estimate typically comes in at less than its competitors.
- By partnering with Labmovers.com, many movers can undertake a lab relocation that involves a plug-in transport.
Conclusion
Labmovers.com completed the entire plug-in transport on February 6.
