The following moving and delivery guidelines have been developed to ensure a safe and efficient move for you and your organization. Following these guidelines will expedite your move and protect the people handling the move as well as your property and the building itself. These guidelines are in no way meant to hamper or restrict your moving process, but rather to safeguard the elements involved in the process. Please let us know how we can best assist you with your move. We would be happy to answer any further questions you may have.
- Notify the Tenant Services Coordinator at 203-353-5241 as soon and as much in advance as possible as to the date and time of your scheduled move. All moving arrangements must be cleared by the Tenant Services Coordinator. All moves will be scheduled on a first come first served basis.
- Remember large office moves (3 or more pieces of furniture) may only occur on the weekends or after 6:00 pm, Monday thru Friday. Large deliveries (other than furniture) must be prearranged with the Tenant Services Coordinator, but are usually permitted after 6:00 pm, Monday thru Friday and on weekends.
- Large moves must be handled through the freight elevator. The building will provide pads to protect the freight elevator.
- The loading dock is the only building entrance permitted for large moves. We strongly encourage you to reserve this area for all large moves and deliveries. Any exceptions to this entry point must be authorized in advance by the Tenant Services Coordinator. If other areas of access are approved, the mover must protect floors and walls with acceptable material to prevent damage.
- The mover or contractor must provide a CERTIFICATE OF INSURANCE prior to the move. The mover or contractor must be bonded and carry a minimum of $1 million dollars combined single limit, property damage and public liability insurance. The Certificate of Insurance should be issued, as follows:
Certificate Holder:
ESRT First Stamford Place SPE, L.L.C.
Empire State Realty Trust
300 First Stamford Place, Suite 220
Stamford, CT 06902
Additional Insured:
ESRT First Stamford Place SPE, LLC
Harbor Group Management Co., LLC
HG Receiver, LLC as court appointed receiver for ESRT First Stamford Place SPE, LLC
We request that you secure a Certificate of Insurance for your firm as well.
- You and your mover or contractor will be responsible for any damage to the building incurred during the move. To avoid unnecessary damage:
- Pad or otherwise protect all entrances, doorways, and walls affected by the move.
- Cover all floors traversed during the move with appropriate material.
- Your mover or contractor must immediately report to the Security Desk/Concierge any electrical problems or equipment breakdowns that occur during the move which may affect building operation.
- Our building has a strict “NO SMOKING” policy. Moving crew members are not permitted to smoke in any area of the building.
- The Fire Marshall prohibits the blocking of any fire corridor, exit door, elevator, lobby or hallway. Do not park moving vehicles in marked Fire Lanes.
- Please use the service elevator for all deliveries. Upon request, all after-hours deliveries of small packages will be held at the Concierge/Security desk in the Lobby.
