Challenge:

As part of a commitment to providing the best possible learning environment for their students, the Little Red School House & Elisabeth Irwin High School (LREI) previously renovated their classrooms for the 2025-2026 school year.

As part of the process, LREI required storage for student desks, chairs, and other items to be housed during the scholastic semester. This project required scheduling and timely completion that would not disrupt students during school hours. Furthermore, city and state-regulations for New York schools, parking restrictions, and limited freight elevators access would also need to be navigated.

In order to accomplish this task, they would need an experienced commercial mover with ample storage space, and a fleet of trucks transporting the items.

Solutions:

As one of the top-rated office logistics providers in New York City, Sher-Del Transfer was the best choice for this project. In coordination with the school’s staff, we created a proposal tailored for their specific needs and concerns. This plan included designating specialty storage trailers and trucks for transport, in addition to trained supervisors and workers.

Once approved, Sher-Del Transfer handled every aspect of the transition and storage of the school’s inventory. During the project, our team took special care to safely pack and store these items, using modern safety and packaging equipment. We reserved parking close enough to the school to effectively complete the job. We also coordinated with staff members to adhere to city and state building regulations.

Sher-Del Transfer used its in-depth storage and inventory management system to carefully keep track of every item given to use by the school. Our computerized database, tagging system, and security equipment carefully handled the LREI’s inventory throughout the year.

Once the school’s summer program began, Sher-Del Transfer delivered all of their previous supplies for their summer program and removed aged equipment that was no longer in use.

Results:

As a result of Sher-Del Transfer’s work, LREI was able to successfully store school equipment during the renovation. Both organizations were able to create a plan to properly execute the project in a timely manner for the school’s super program.
