Somerset Case Study: Relocating 220m of Roller Racking in 36 Hours

28 November 2025 ยท 5 min read

A Taunton-based professional services firm needed to move 220 linear metres of roller racking โ€” roughly 18,000 records โ€” from a tired Edwardian office to a modern unit on Priorswood. The constraint: no business interruption.

Friday 17:00 โ€” finish

Staff left for the weekend at 5pm. Our six-person team arrived at 17:30 and started decant.

Saturday โ€” transport

Track lift and component label complete by 11am. Two air-ride vehicles loaded and shuttled across town. Reinstall began at the new site by 14:00.

Sunday โ€” sign-off

System re-leveled, re-tracked and tested by 16:00. Stock back on shelves by 20:00. PUWER inspection passed.

Monday 08:00 โ€” open

Staff arrived to a fully operational archive in their new office. Total downtime: zero working hours.

Cost vs new equivalent: 52% saving.
