Location - Shropshire, West Midlands
Project scope
Relocate Shropshire Council
Our key tasks
- 1,200 staff moved
- Temporary double moves of staff
- Sequential file packing and unpacking
- File audits and mapping
- Confidential files sequentially packed and sealed
When Shropshire Council replaced their two-tier local government structure, roughly 1,200 staff needed to move within buildings and between locations across the county. Some of these moves were temporary double moves and included sometimes conflicting and sensitive needs in terms of continuing service delivery.
Our project management working hand-in-hand with the client
We believe in working closely with our clients, so they have their needs met and if changes to the plan need to be made, they can be done quickly and with little disruption. We asked the council to create a move communications team, made up of a core project team and a group of move champions from each department. We provided a dedicated project manager and helpline to provide constant support throughout the move process.
Confidential security and minimal disruption
In addition to sequential file packing and unpacking, file audits and mapping, our packers also packed (sequentially) several thousand metres of confidential filing into filing crates. They were sealed with a one-way cable tie with a unique serial number.
Where possible, we moved storage cabinets fully intact to their new location mechanically, saving the time and disruption of unpacking and re-packing the cabinets.

Email to Martin
The collection has been collected and I probably won’t speak to you again, but I want to say ‘Thank you’ for all of your help over the last 7 months. It has made my life so much easier, I think this is the 4th move I have done for Gateway, hopefully this is the last one for some time. The crew of movers we linked with are also brilliant and really good fun to be around. So, thanks again and best wishes for the future.
Regards Maxine
