Why Coastal

Expertise you can trust.

Healthcare facilities have needs no general moving company is built for. We're built for exactly this.

Expertise You Can Trust

Crews trained specifically on diagnostic imaging, surgical and lab equipment, and on the infection-control, badge and escort protocols that come with working inside a live facility.

Precision and Care

Every lift is engineered before it happens: load calculations, floor-loading checks, path protection and rated rigging. Nothing is improvised on site.

Comprehensive Solutions

Rigging, trucking and warehousing under one roof means one point of contact, one schedule and one team accountable from start to finish.

On Time, On Budget

Projects planned and executed to meet the schedule, scope and budget agreed at survey. Leading OEMs and ISOs keep calling us back because the number we quote is the number they pay.

How it works

A process built around your downtime.

Predictable, documented, and scheduled to the hour, including nights and weekends when the department can't close.

01

Site Survey

We walk the route, measure every doorway and elevator, and confirm floor loading before quoting a thing.

02

Rigging Plan

You get a written plan: sequence, gear, crew size, timing window and contingency steps.

03

Execution

Certified crews de-install, rig, protect and transport, with your team informed at every checkpoint.

04

Set & Sign-off

Equipment is placed, leveled and released to your OEM engineer for calibration, with full documentation.

Medical equipment moving is not standard freight.

What a planned lift looks like.

Thirty four seconds from one of our own jobs: a mechanical unit rigged, lifted over the parapet and landed on the roof deck. Nothing here is improvised on the day.

  • Engineered lift plan and load calculations before the crane arrives
  • Rated slings and spreader gear, inspected and certified
  • Exclusion zone set and the landing area prepared in advance
  • Unit set, levelled and released to the mechanical trade
