OUR PROCESS

Purging

Trash can cost your company money and resources. Many companies today are in need of purging unneeded documents, boxes, furniture, and other waste. These items take up valuable real estate within your office space. This wasted space could be used to produce revenue and also eliminate the need to purchase or rent additional real estate. Too often, companies move their refuse from one location to the next, wasting money to pay for moving and storing items that should have been disposed of prior to the move.

Flood Brothers offers a purging service to help on your company’s next purge campaign. We bring out bins (available in multiple sizes) and strategically place them throughout your facility. Your employees simply fill the bins as needed and we come and pick up the bins when they are full. We’ll provide the service that meets your day-to-day needs, plus same-day emergency services are usually available to handle unexpected overflows. All items collected are integrated with our company’s landfill disposal services to help control costs and ensure that your waste will be disposed of in a manner that meets or exceeds all local, state and federal environmental regulations.

PACKING

In the ongoing effort to perform the most efficient relocations, Flood Brothers implements the newest state of the art

moving equipment and methods to execute your projects. We also utilize GREEN products whenever possible in the use and procurement of moving equipment and cardboard boxes. The Flood Brothers’ methods of moving content is based on using the right equipment for the right job.

We utilize established ratios of labor, trucks and equipment that have been proven to add efficiencies that will lower the overall cost of an office move. These ratios are only possible because of our unique training program which establishes uniform standards and a true team. The “Team” concept is exclusive to Flood Brothers because we are the only company in our industry that has all of its own employees. Therefore, we are able to invest in training and mentoring programs that promote employees according

to their competencies and desire to advance within the company. Better trained teams increase efficiencies and lower costs by decreasing the number of laborers and truckloads needed to perform the move, hence reducing the overall cost of the relocation process.

LABELING

Below are some templates for employee education. These can be emailed to each workstation or handed out during the Move Orientation Meeting.

MOVE MANAGEMENT

Flood Brothers has an extensive library of templates for the Move Coordinator to assist in managing the move process.

PROTECTION (Building and Content Protection )

Complete building protection used on every move

Whether it’s internal churn or dock to dock moves, Flood Brothers leads the industry in protecting your building. We use the most advanced systems and products to exceed all building protection requirements. We protect your floors with Carpet Shield, Neoprene runners and Masonite wherever necessary.

We protect your walls using polypropylene wall boards that are 250 times stronger than the standard wall protection. This system will also eliminate damages associated with putting tape on the walls. We also protect your entryways and corners using Corner Guards and Door Jam Guards. Beyond protecting your building’s elevator interior cab, we also protect the elevator’s entryway using the Matador System.

LOADING /UNLOADING (Dock Management)

All Dock availability and procedures will be obtained from the building management at origin and destination as soon as the project is awarded.

Flood Brothers operations management will contact the Building Manager to make sure that the elevator repairman is on call before the move starts. We will also obtain his number and the building rules upon being awarded the project.

If there is no elevator protection from the building management office, Flood Brothers will provide protective hanging pads to protect the walls. If required we will also have Masonite and padding to protect the cab floors. Our crews are trained to be wary of moving parts and not to over pack the elevator. We value the elevator, not only for its own costs, but just as importantly it is the quickest way to shut down the project.

LABOR EFFICIENCIES

As one of the industry leaders in government relocation, Flood Brothers provides efficiencies and worry-free moves for our valued government customers. We are the only relocation company in our market that is committed to placing only company hired employees on every jobsite. By implementing an advanced hiring, screening, and training policy for our employees, we can ensure the quality of service that our customers have come to expect. Temporary employees, usually in the form of “Day Laborers”, are an inefficient labor resource because of their lack of skill and motivation. Their inexperience will also require more supervision and absorb valuable time from the Project Manager. These inefficiencies will result in higher billed hours, strained or missed deadlines, and unacceptable damages to the content and facility.

GREEN MOVES PROGRAM

Flood Brothers implemented the Green Moves program to comply with Executive Order (EO) 13423 and EPEAT registered products and services -The Federal Green Initiative is a critical step in the effort to heal our planet.

“GREEN MOVES” is a program which implements methods to reduce negative impacts on the environment while also lowering costs associated with conventional moving and installation services.

GREEN MOVES manages waste generated by the moving process utilizing a Pre-Move and Post Move Purge Campaign. We use Electronic and Document Destruction with an advanced Recycling Program. It also implements Off Site Storage & Asset Management to maximize the life of existing inventories.

As an alternative to standard disposable building protection, we use sustainable products that provide better protection, go up in a fraction of the time and can also be used repeatedly for years before being recycled. 98% of all the materials used on a certified GREEN MOVE will be reused over and over for years before being recycled.

OUR REFERENCES

I believe these were our smoothest moves in the ten years I have been managing the Facilities department at our corporate headquarters…a win for all of us.

Corporate Facilities Manager

Flood Brothers did an outstanding job during our 220 employee renovation project. Without them I don’t believe we would have met the tight timelines we were working with.

— IMERYS
Corporate Services Manager

One of the biggest reasons we decided to go with Flood Brothers is that you assigned a Project Manager who would be our contact from start to finish. This was something we didn’t see offered by the other moving companies we spoke with. I found him to be both proactive and dependable.

As I showed up on the jobsites at three of your competitors, I saw employees who were obviously temporary day laborers with lackluster attitudes. When I arrived at your job I saw a team who demonstrated a sense of urgency and an attention to facility protection that I had not seen yet.
