Local Response from HQ
Our headquarters is on Clawiter Road in Hayward. Local lab moves benefit from short transit distances and a crew based in the same city.
Industrial Corridor Access
Hayward's industrial parks house food science labs, environmental testing facilities, and biotech startups. We navigate loading docks, freight elevators, and industrial building access daily.
University Lab Coordination
University research labs run their own parking, facilities and academic-calendar requirements, and we confirm what applies with the campus before move day.
How much does a Hayward laboratory move cost?
Ontrack Moving® quotes Hayward 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 Hayward?
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 Hayward?
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.

Delicate collectibles handled with attention and care
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. ... The movers packed the rooms methodically including delicate collectibles items with attention and care. They labeled all the boxes and walked over the new space and where items would go.

Very fast and caring crew, Hayward to Livermore
Eduardo (foreman), Edgar, Domingo, and Jaime were very great and exceeded beyond my expectations. Very fast and caring when transporting from Hayward to Livermore. They also asked questions where to move and I am very amazed that they are very organized. I would recommend this company because their price is fair and the moving structure is very professional.

Heavy item moved with special care over hardwood floors
Ontrack was responsive and very professional. Sam was very responsive to my emails and calls. He was able to estimate and schedule in a very short period of time. I needed to move a heavy BBQ. The move required special care since it needed to come through my home and over hardwood floors. Eduardo Arqueta and Santiago Acevedo were very professional and took great care to not cause any damage. I would recommend Ontrack for any move.
