Group Moves (Phones/Data Ports/Computers/Printers)
Contact Judy Michael at x6015 before calling the movers to set a date for any "group moves". A move is considered a "group move" if it affects:

  • 5 or more computers and phones moving to newly reconstructed areas, or
  • 5 or more computers and phones moving to a new location.

At least two weeks advance notice is required to adequately coordinate the staffing necessary to move telephone lines, data ports, DSP and non-DSP computers and printers for group moves. Allow additional time if installation of phone or data cables is required.
