Industrial removals

Move your factory without unnecessary downtime? With industrial removals, it's all about planning, safety and one director who oversees the whole thing. Pol Industrial Movements is that total partner: we combine compact lifting, special transport and warehousing to seamlessly move from machine to complete production line. This is how we keep things fast, safe and organized, with one point of contact from start to completion.

What is an industrial move and why does a total partner count?

An industrial move involves moving machines, production cells, lines or entire departments. It's like a chess game: each move affects turnaround time and safety. If you opt for a total partner, you will limit transfer moments, get one schedule and reduce the risks of run-out and damage. In addition, we work within the framework of European safety guidelines (such as the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC) and proven practices for working safely with heavy loads. This is not a luxury, but a precondition for getting your operation up and running quickly and safely.

How does an industrial move take place step by step?

• Intake and recording: we map goals, scope and preconditions, including floor load, routes and lifting points.
• Engineering and work preparation: final lifting plan, crane selection, route/permit study and packaging plan.
• Disassembly, packaging and packaging: safely disconnect, label, preserve and prepare for transport.
• Lifting and hoisting: use of mini cranes for tight spaces and outdoor truck-mounted cranes; everything according to plan and supervision.
• Special transport: coordination of exceptional transport, guidance and time slots, including internationally.
• Warehousing and reinstallation: temporary storage, just-in-time delivery, set-up, alignment, testing and delivery.

Why Pol Industrial Movements does make your industrial move run smoothly?

• One point of contact, zero hassle: we bundle lifting, transport and warehousing into one tightly controlled chain.
• Joining forces from practice: Pol Industrial Movements is a collaboration between Pol Compact Lifting and Pol Transport. You benefit from more than 30 years of experience, short lines of communication and a team that works in production environments every day.
• All the tools you need: from mini cranes and truck-mounted cranes to lifting beams, lifting and hoisting equipment, trailers and trailers. As a result, we switch faster and keep a grip on planning and quality.
• Internal work without downtime: our compact (including electrically operated) mini cranes work safely in factory halls and tight passageways, with experienced operators who respect your floor and environment.
• Active across Europe: with locations in the Netherlands and Germany, we combine local presence with cross-border strength.
• 24/7 availability: when the window is small, we work nights and weekends and keep your line running with smart phasing.
• Turnkey from A to Z: dismantling, packaging/packing, transport, temporary storage and reinstallation. You keep one schedule and one responsible.

Which sectors do we help most often?

We mainly work for industry and packaging-related companies, from food and pharma to FMCG, intralogistics, paper/print and plastic. Think of moving filling and packaging lines, presses, CNCs, robots and palletizing cells. For OEMs and system integrators, we also include (dis) assembly and test/commissioning, so that your installation goes live quickly and safely.

What determines the costs and lead time for industrial removals?

Factors include complexity, weight and dimensions, accessibility on site, required permits, distance and the window for downtime. The sooner we think along, the sharper your plan and budget. Send us drawings, photos, weights/dimensions, desired delivery date, floor load and any utilities; we will quickly deliver a realistic plan and quote.

Our equipment and team: compact, powerful, coordinated

• Compact lifting: mini cranes with low ground pressure for precise positioning in tight spaces.

Frequently asked questions about industrial removals

How do you limit downtime during the move?

We work with tight phasing, weekends/evening windows and just-in-time logistics. With compact lifting equipment, we can often continue to work without major production stops.

Do you also arrange packaging, temporary storage and documents?

Yes. We pack/dispatch machine parts, provide temporary warehousing and arrange CMR/customs and permits where necessary. This way, you keep a single point of contact.

Can you work in factories with limited space?

Sure. Our mini cranes and experienced operators are specifically designed for tight passages and low working heights. Safety and floor integrity come first.

Do you also work outside the Netherlands?

Yes. We operate throughout Europe and have a presence in the Netherlands and Germany. Cross-border planning and guidance are a daily occurrence.

What do you need for a quick quote?

Send photos/drawings, weights/dimensions, moving and lifting points, floor load, accessibility, deadlines and the desired downtime window. We respond quickly with a proposal.
