Commercial removals, planned around your downtime.
Family-run since 2000, Dolphin moves offices, schools and IT across Liverpool, Manchester and the North West, and UK-wide. Out-of-hours, fully project-managed, with as little disruption to trading as possible.
A commercial move, properly planned
Dolphin has handled commercial removals across the North West since 2000, from single-floor office moves to whole-building, school and university relocations. We have co-ordinated moves on behalf of the Department for Education, University of Liverpool, NU Construction, H.Miller Bros, John Moores Foundation and Jennings Design Associates.

Got questions?
Commercial removals, answered, and if your question isn’t here, just ask.
01/
Can you move us out of hours or over a weekend?
+
Yes, most of our commercial moves run evenings, weekends or in phases. We build the schedule around your trading hours so downtime is kept to a minimum.
02/
How do you handle IT and servers?
+
With anti-static bubble, screen covers and a sequence agreed with your IT team, priority systems loaded last and delivered first, so you’re back online fast. Specialist vehicles and lift planning where access needs it.
03/
Do you provide crates and packing for the office?
+
We deliver department colour-coded labels and relo/IT crates ahead of the move, so your team can pack their own desks to a simple, labelled system. We can also pack for you where that’s easier.

Can you dispose of our old furniture?
+
We have a commercial disposal licence for environmental recycling which is supported by a recycling certificate.
05/
Which areas do you cover?

The whole of the North West, Liverpool, Manchester, Cheshire and beyond, plus commercial moves UK-wide, including London.
06/
What protection do I have during my move?
