Office moving · Garland, TX
Office movers in Garland, from downtown to Firewheel.
Garland is roughly 17 miles east of our base at 4310 McEwen Rd in Farmers Branch. It counted 246,018 residents at the 2020 Census and is mostly in Dallas County, with portions in Collin and Rockwall counties. Garland has long been a manufacturing city: the Kraft plant that took over the old Continental Motors plant after World War II still operates, and Resistol hats have been made here since 1938. The largest employers listed by the city's economic development partnership are Garland ISD and the City of Garland, followed by Kraft Foods, US Food Service, Epiroc Drilling Solutions, SilverLine Window and Hatco (Resistol). So a Garland office move is as likely to be a plant or warehouse office as a downtown suite. We have moved Dallas–Fort Worth businesses since 2007.
Where Garland's offices are, and what each area means for a move
Historic Downtown Garland
The square and surrounding blocks, listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2017, beside City Hall and the Downtown Garland DART Blue Line station, where the 5th Street Crossing project added apartments, flex retail and live-work units. Older storefront and upper-floor offices here usually have no loading dock, so we plan where the truck stands, the carry to the door and any stairs with the property before the move day.
Jupiter Road and Shiloh Road corridors
Several of Garland's largest employers and industrial sites are on these two north–south roads, including Garland ISD at 501 S. Jupiter Road, the Sherwin-Williams site and the Shiloh Business Center on South Shiloh Road, and the city's Garland/DFW Heloplex on South Jupiter. Offices attached to plants and warehouses mean dock schedules, shift changes and forklift traffic, which we plan around with the site manager.
Firewheel and northeast Garland
Around Firewheel Town Center, the Main Street-style outdoor center that opened in 2005 near the President George Bush Turnpike. Professional and retail offices here are newer and easier to reach by truck, but shared parking and tenant rules still set when we can load, which we confirm with the property ahead of time.
Medical, college and public-sector offices
Medical City has a hospital in Garland, a former Baylor Scott & White hospital is now a VA medical center, Parkland runs the Garland Health Center, and Dallas College (Richland) and Amberton University have Garland campuses. These buildings work to set move windows, reserved elevators and sign-off from facilities staff, which we arrange before the date is fixed.
Five highways, and no overnight truck on the street
I-30 runs along Garland's south side, I-635 crosses the west, the President George Bush Turnpike runs through the north, and SH 66 and SH 78 connect the older parts of the city to them. Downtown, the Jupiter and Shiloh corridors and Firewheel each sit closest to a different one, so we plan the route and crew start time around where your building is.
Garland code does not allow a commercial vehicle to be parked and left overnight on any public street or public property, so an office move that runs past one day is planned so the truck leaves at the end of each day or stays on the property's own lot with permission. We coordinate dock times and elevator reservations with property management at both buildings.
How we run an office move in Garland
A coordinator walks your current office and the new floor plan with your office manager. Every workstation, office and common area gets a number, and that number goes on every box, crate and piece of furniture from it, so the crew unloads straight to the right desk. Computers and monitors are packed and logged separately from furniture, and files move in sealed crates in the order they left the cabinet.

Office moving in Garland: questions
How far is Green Van Lines from Garland?
Roughly 17 miles. We are at 4310 McEwen Rd in Farmers Branch, and a coordinator can walk your Garland office in person before we quote.
Can the moving truck stay on the street overnight during a two-day office move?
No. Garland code says no commercial vehicle may be parked and left overnight on a public street or public property, so we plan the truck to leave each evening or to stay on your building's own lot if the property allows it.
Do you move offices inside plants and warehouses on Jupiter or Shiloh Road?
Yes. We schedule around the site's dock times and shift changes, keep the office move out of forklift lanes, and label every desk and room for the new floor plan.
Can you move our Garland office to another state?
Yes. Long-distance moving is what Green Van Lines was built on. The same coordinator plans both ends, and furniture can wait in climate-controlled storage if the new space is not ready.
