Why Burlingame labs trust us
Why Burlingame Labs Choose Ontrack
Burlingame sits at the intersection of the Peninsula biotech corridor and the SFO logistics zone. Clinical labs near Mills-Peninsula Medical Center, pharmaceutical offices along the El Camino corridor, and airport-area testing companies all rely on precision instruments that cannot tolerate rough handling or unplanned downtime. 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 in Burlingame.
Clinical Lab Building Coordination
Medical-campus and SFO-corridor buildings each run their own loading dock schedules and freight elevator access. We confirm those with facility management before setting a move window.
SFO Corridor Logistics
Proximity to SFO creates traffic and timing challenges. Our crews plan routes and scheduling around airport-area congestion and building access restrictions.
Pharmaceutical Equipment Handling
Pharma compounding equipment, clinical analyzers, and temperature-sensitive materials require specialized packaging and transport protocols.
How much does a Burlingame laboratory move cost?
Ontrack Moving® quotes Burlingame 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 Burlingame?
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 Burlingame?
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.

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.

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.
