Certificate of Insurance (COI)
Union Square commercial buildings typically require proof of insurance. Historic properties and shopping centers often have specific requirements:
Union Square Building Coordination
Moving in Union Square means working with diverse building types from historic hotels to modern shopping centers. We handle all coordination:
Pedestrian Traffic Management
We schedule moves during low-traffic hours to avoid the thousands of daily shoppers and tourists. Loading zones and access points are coordinated with SFMTA.
Historic Building Care
Historic Union Square properties need extra protection. We use floor runners, corner guards, and narrow-profile equipment for tight corridors.
Retail Floor Navigation
For offices above retail, we coordinate passage through store areas during closed hours, to avoid disrupting retail tenants or merchandise.
Extremely Dependable, Careful, and Efficient Crew
After two separate movers not showing up to help us move, Ima, Sergio and Domingo showed up exactly on time. Got to work right away. Surveyed the house, asked us if there things they needed to consider and prioritize and got right to work. They were extremely hardworking and careful with our stuff... Very impressed. All in all if you are looking for an extremely dependable company and workers for your next move, these guys are really really good...

Five-Man Crew, On Time and Professional Start to Finish
Eduardo, Martin, Edgar, Victor, and Juan were the best movers I've ever had. On time, professional, and hard working from start to finish. The estimate I was provided was spot on. They all deserve a huge raise and I couldn't have done it without them!

Outstanding Service at a Great Price
Outstanding service at a great price. I got a quote from another company that was twice as much as OnTrack ended up quoting me for a simple project. They had next day availability, delivered down a one-lane road with trees and the customer was very impressed. Absolutely would use them again, Sam was very helpful and accessible.

Frequently Asked Questions About Union Square Business Moving
Common questions from Union Square businesses planning a commercial relocation.
Ontrack Moving® schedules Union Square retail moves for late evening, after 9 PM, or early morning, before 7 AM, when pedestrian traffic is minimal. We also recommend avoiding major shopping periods like the holiday season. Sunday nights into Monday mornings often provide the longest uninterrupted windows for larger retail relocations.
Yes. Ontrack Moving® provides complete FF&E services for Union Square hotels including guest room furniture, lobby pieces, restaurant equipment, and back-of-house items. We work floor-by-floor to minimize guest disruption and can coordinate with your renovation schedule for phased deliveries. Our crews are experienced with the historic hotels around Union Square.
Ontrack Moving® handles glass displays and mannequins with specialized equipment. We use custom padding, furniture blankets, and secure strapping for transport.

Yes. Ontrack Moving® coordinates moves within Union Square shopping centers. These properties have specific requirements for move timing, freight access, and insurance.

Yes. Ontrack Moving® moves the corporate offices that sit above street-level retail throughout Union Square. We coordinate passage through retail floors during closed hours, typically after 9 PM. This minimizes disruption to retail operations or merchandise. For buildings with separate freight access, we can sometimes work during business hours with proper scheduling.
Ontrack Moving® plans around Union Square's heavy-traffic periods: the holiday shopping season, ice skating rink period (November-January), and major conventions. We recommend scheduling moves well outside these windows when possible. If a move must occur during busy periods, we work with SFMTA on loading zone permits and schedule for the earliest morning hours.
Ontrack Moving® issues Certificates of Insurance ahead of move day and turns around most requests during business hours. Historic buildings and shopping centers often have specific endorsement requirements. Send us your building's insurance requirements and we'll customize the certificate. Ontrack Moving® carries $10M Combined Protection Tower and basic $0.60/lb cargo liability per article.
Office and lab relocated on a staggered schedule
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... 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.
Quick with the quote and COI for our office move
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... 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.
Punctual, well-coordinated office and warehouse move
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. They meticulously packed, transported, and unpacked everything, ensuring a smooth and seamless transition for our business. Their experience in commercial moving was evident throughout the process.
