How do you move a -80C ULT freezer in Sunnyvale?
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.

Why Sunnyvale research facilities choose us
Your Lab Equipment Is Too Valuable for Guesswork
Sunnyvale labs house networking test beds, defense prototypes, semiconductor fab tools, and medical device testing systems. Downtime costs more than the move itself. Our crews understand how to handle rack-mounted infrastructure, EMI-sensitive instruments, and the controlled-access protocols these sites run, and we sequence the move around the windows they give us.
Defense Contractor Facility Protocols
Sunnyvale is home to aerospace and defense R&D operations, and those sites run controlled access. We work with facility security managers on access requirements, vehicle and driver information, scheduling windows and insurance documentation, to whatever protocol the site sets.
EMI-Shielded Lab Awareness
Networking and cybersecurity labs commonly run EMI-shielded environments. We transport RF testing equipment, protocol analyzers, and shielded enclosures with electromagnetic sensitivity in mind.
Network Infrastructure Relocation
For rack systems, switch fabrics, traffic generators and test infrastructure, agree the equipment list, labeling responsibilities and destination layout with your IT team before moving.

Precision at every step
How does Ontrack handle sensitive lab equipment?
Anti-Vibration Transport
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.
Calibration Awareness
Your lab and its calibration vendor identify the pre-move status, handling requirements and checks needed after placement. Agree how reference standards and test fixtures should be packed and grouped, and who supplies any traceability or handoff records.
Cold-Storage Planning
Plan cold-storage equipment and its contents separately. The exact equipment model's manufacturer instructions govern preparation, transport and restart, while your lab's approved sample plan sets storage conditions, monitoring and acceptance checks. Agree who supplies each specialist service and how the equipment pickup and delivery fit that plan. Ontrack handles the agreed physical equipment move; hazardous materials travel under the lab's approved specialist arrangements.
Anti-Static Floor Protection (Masonite)
Choose floor protection with the facility team for the route and floor finish. The facility determines any ESD controls required for the equipment and space; ordinary hardboard floor protection is not an ESD control.
Cleanroom Handling Requirements
For cleanroom equipment, review the exact inventory, manufacturer handling instructions and facility entry requirements before agreeing the move. Your lab, facilities team and qualified equipment providers determine preparation, particle and ESD controls, packing and any destination qualification. Confirm who supplies specialist materials or services. Ontrack handles the physical packing, transport and placement accepted in the written scope.

Yes. Sunnyvale is home to networking, cybersecurity, and defense labs that rely on EMI-shielded environments. We transport sensitive RF and electromagnetic testing equipment with shielding awareness and coordinate with your facilities team on room decommission and setup at the new location. The shielding infrastructure itself typically requires specialized contractors, which we can help coordinate.
Contact Ontrack once the origin, destination and equipment scope are known. Build the move date around site access approval, the lab's EH&S process, equipment preparation and vendor availability. Confirm those dependencies with each responsible team before booking the physical move; a larger or phased project may need more planning time.

What Sunnyvale Customers Say About Ontrack
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.

COI handled quickly for 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. Also, the amazing crew we had over the weekend, Hugoa and his team!... 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.

Seven years of reliable service
Over the past 7 years, we've moved twice locally and used the storage vaults with OnTrack. Every single time I've called, made appointments or asked for info, every person I spoke with has been professional, knowledgeable and communicative. ... Sam handled both moves - please give that man a raise and a promotion. The first move, my partner and I consolidated 2 houses and moved into a new one. Sam was patient as I asked questions; he was transparent with pricing, move logistics and communications.
