These 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. Please call the Property Management Office at (202) 371-1330.

1. Notify the Property Management Office as soon as possible as to the date and time of your scheduled move. All moving arrangements must be cleared by the building’s Manager. All moves will be scheduled on a first come, first served, basis.
2. Large office moves (anything over 5,000 sq. ft. or full floors) may only occur on the weekends or after 11:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. All Large moves must be handled through the freight elevator. Security personnel, paid by the tenant, will be required to monitor the freight elevator, and loading dock. 
3. The loading dock is the only building entrance permitted for all moves. We strongly encourage you to schedule this area for all large moves and deliveries. Any exceptions to this entry point must be authorized by building management. If other areas of access are approved, the mover must protect floors and walls with acceptable material to prevent damage.
4. The moving contractor must provide a Certificate of Insurance prior to the move. The mover must be bonded and carry a minimum of $6 million combined single limit, property damage, and public liability insurance. We suggest that you secure a Certificate of Insurance for your firm as well.
5. Your moving contractor will be responsible for any damage to the building incurred during the move. To avoid unnecessary damage:
   1. Pad or otherwise protect all entrances, doorways, and walls affected by the move.
   2. Cover all floors traversed during the move with appropriate material.
6. Your moving contractor must report any electrical problems or equipment breakdowns that occur during the move which may affect building operation. They are also responsible for removing all trash and bulky packing cartons from the building and the loading dock.
7. 1050 17th Street has a strict “NO SMOKING” policy. Moving crew members are not permitted to smoke in any area of the building except at the loading dock.
8. 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.
9. Please use the service elevator for all deliveries.  Exterior access to this elevator is from the loading dock located on the East side of the building in the alley between L street and 17th Street. The loading dock doors are open 8:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Any deliveries to be made outside of those hours must be scheduled and approved by the building Manager.
