The Task
Client: Confidential (US-based company)
Industry: Technology
Project Overview: The client tasked us with a complete office decommissioning, ensuring the premises met all lease-end conditions.
This included shredding sensitive paperwork, environmentally responsible disposal of furniture, IT equipment disposal (WEEE-compliant), a deep clean of the premises, repainting walls, and securely shipping essential network IT equipment back to their US headquarters.
About us: As a proud member of the Office Moving Alliance (OMA), our company collaborates with relocation specialists worldwide to deliver seamless and professional office moving services.
For this project, we partnered with an OMA member from California, whose client based in the United States required a comprehensive office clear-out as they transitioned out of Ireland.
Challenges:
- Coordinating multiple aspects of the project within a tight timeline to meet lease-end deadlines.
- Ensuring full compliance with Irish environmental and data protection regulations for the disposal of paperwork, IT equipment, and furniture.
- Safely crating and shipping network IT equipment to the US while maintaining security and minimizing risk of damage.
- Restoring the premises to its original condition, including deep cleaning and painting.
Solution:
Drawing on our OMA expertise, we executed the project with precision and efficiency:

Results:
The office clear-out was completed on time, leaving the premises fully restored and ready for handover. The client’s network IT equipment arrived safely at their US office, and all disposals were carried out in compliance with environmental and data protection regulations.
