Fremont
Laboratory Movers
Fremont is home to Lam Research and Tesla, and to a wider base of semiconductor, life-science and manufacturing R&D operations. These facilities house heavy semiconductor tools, biotech instruments, and manufacturing R&D equipment that general movers are not equipped to handle. Our crews relocate industrial-scale lab equipment with rigging expertise, vibration-conscious transport, and site survey planning built for warehouse-lab combination spaces.
Moving + Storage under one roof, one company, one point of contact Plus free use of moving blankets, wardrobe boxes, and floor protection on every move.

Why Fremont labs trust us
Why Fremont Labs Choose Ontrack
Fremont sits at the intersection of semiconductor manufacturing, biotech research, and industrial R&D. Semiconductor, life-science and manufacturing R&D operations in Fremont run labs with equipment that weighs thousands of pounds and requires anti-static handling, cleanroom awareness, and vibration-dampened transport. Ontrack Moving® is an asset-based Bay Area and Phoenix mover with a dedicated laboratory relocation practice, and we match the handling protocol to the instrument and to the access conditions at the site.
Semiconductor and Fab Equipment Handling
Fremont's semiconductor facilities require anti-static handling, particle-controlled packaging, and vibration-dampened transport for lithography and etching equipment.
Warehouse-Lab Combo Moves
Many Fremont labs share space with manufacturing floors. We coordinate phased moves so the lab sections come out in an order that works around the production schedule.
Heavy Equipment Rigging
Industrial-scale lab equipment in Fremont facilities often requires rigging, forklifts, and custom crating for safe extraction and placement.
How much does a Fremont laboratory move cost?
Ontrack Moving® quotes Fremont laboratory moves after reviewing the equipment, packing needs, access at both sites, crew time, distance and move sequence. Ask your equipment and cabinet vendors for separate estimates for any preparation, decontamination, testing or recalibration they need to perform. The written moving estimate identifies the agreed services and how changes, waiting time and additional materials affect charges.
How do you move a -80C ULT freezer in Fremont?
Ontrack Moving® plans the physical freezer move around the exact model's manufacturer instructions and your laboratory's approved sample plan. Those instructions determine unloading, preparation, transport orientation and restart conditions; a short drive does not establish permission to move a loaded freezer. Your lab arranges sample storage, any required monitoring and release back to use. Confirm the responsible people and the pickup and delivery arrangements before moving day.
How do you move a biosafety cabinet (BSC) in Fremont?
Ontrack Moving® handles the physical move of a biosafety cabinet after your laboratory's EH&S or biosafety lead and qualified cabinet vendor determine the preparation, any required decontamination and release for handling. Plan the route, equipment dimensions and packing before pickup. The responsible lab team and cabinet vendor determine destination installation, testing and certification before the cabinet returns to use.
Lab moving expertise
Fremont Laboratory Moving Services
Semiconductor Equipment
Semiconductor and characterization equipment needs an item-specific survey. Review the exact instrument models and manufacturer handling instructions during the survey. Agree packing, bracing, transport orientation and any vibration or ESD requirements with your lab and equipment provider. Confirm who supplies specialist materials or services before booking. Your qualified providers handle technical preparation and return-to-use checks; Ontrack handles the agreed physical move.
Manufacturing R&D Labs
Production floor and R&D lab combos under one roof. We sequence warehouse inventory, manufacturing equipment, and lab instruments to minimize total downtime while relocating mixed-use industrial spaces around Warm Springs and the I-880 corridor.
Biotech and Pharma Labs
Life science and pharma operations across Fremont. We relocate biosafety cabinets, chromatography systems, ultra-low freezers, and cold storage after your lab and qualified vendors confirm preparation, clearance and any separate sample transport.
Analytical Instruments
Spectrometers, electron microscopes, mass spectrometers, and precision measurement tools. Agree the instrument list, packing and transport requirements before moving day. Your lab and equipment vendor determine calibration records and checks.
Warehouse Lab Relocation
Large footprint industrial lab spaces along Fremont's industrial corridors. We map loading dock access, heavy equipment staging areas, and freight elevator capacity during our pre-move site survey for spaces that combine research and warehousing.
Equipment Disposal
Decommissioned equipment with Certificate of Destruction. When Fremont labs retire outdated instruments, we coordinate disposal logistics with licensed vendors, who perform the destruction and issue the Certificate of Destruction for your compliance records.

Equipment handling protocols
How We Handle Fremont's Research Equipment
Industrial and research instruments are engineered for precision, not portability. Our handling protocols are built around that precision.
Instrument Protection Measures
- ESD requirements reviewed with the lab and equipment provider
- Instrument-specific packing requirements agreed during the survey
- Transport orientation checked against manufacturer instructions
- Packing requirements confirmed for the equipment in scope
- Calibration records and checks assigned to your lab and equipment vendor
- Dedicated trucks assigned to your move, not shared freight
Hazardous Materials Policy
- We do not transport hazardous materials directly
- Hazardous materials do not move on our trucks
- The lab and qualified provider determine material classification and authorized transport arrangements
- We work with your EH&S team on compliance requirements
- Non-hazardous lab items in scope handled by our trained crews
- Pre-move inventory separates hazmat from standard equipment

Fremont Laboratory Moving FAQs
Fremont labs often house large-format semiconductor tools weighing thousands of pounds. We conduct a pre-move site survey to assess floor loading, dock access, and rigging requirements. The survey establishes the handling, packing and specialist rigging requirements before the moving scope is agreed. We coordinate with your facilities team for power disconnection and loading dock scheduling at both locations.
Yes. Fremont has many industrial spaces that combine warehouse storage, manufacturing areas, and lab suites under one roof. We plan these moves as integrated projects, sequencing warehouse inventory, manufacturing equipment, and lab instruments to minimize total downtime. Loading dock access and heavy equipment staging are mapped during our site survey.
Your EH&S team and specialist provider determine classification, packaging, transport and disposal requirements. We do not directly transport hazardous materials. Our team handles the non-hazardous lab equipment, manufacturing tools, instruments, and infrastructure in scope. We work with your EHS team to align hazmat transport with the overall move schedule.

Moved the laboratory on a Saturday to minimize downtime
I hired Ontrack Moving for a relocation of both an office and lab space in South San Francisco. Because we had two separate "workflows" to move, Ontrack provided a staggered relocation. They delivered materials promptly for us ahead of time, so we could prep accordingly. We moved the laboratory on a Saturday, in order to minimize pause in operations. And we completed the office move the following Tuesday... Super satisfied with the service provided by the South SF team and have already contracted them for additional work.

Office and warehouse move handled with care
We recently hired Ontrack Moving for our commercial relocation, and I couldn't be happier with their services. From start to finish they were on point. The movers were punctual, well-coordinated, and handled our office and warehouse move with care... Their experience in commercial moving was evident throughout the process. I highly recommend Ontrack Moving for their outstanding service.

Quick with the quote and the COI for our office move
We had a great experience with On Track Moving. From the start, they were quick with providing us a quote and COI for our office move. A special thanks to Paul who answered the dozens of questions we had. He's been incredibly diligent and helpful throughout. And Carmina who scheduled the move and parking permits... When we ran into issues with our furniture layout, On Track was quick to solve them, worked beyond their hours, and even came the next day to help us.
