Office furniture liquidation in Portland CBD
Corporate move-outs, consolidations and lease exits in Portland CBD, planned around the district's buildings and logistics, starting with a free walkthrough.
Clearing an office in Portland CBD
Portland's central business district runs from the Willamette River waterfront west to I-405, between Burnside Street and the Portland State University area, with the Fifth and Sixth Avenue transit mall at its center. Law firms, banks, insurers, healthcare systems, engineering firms and government agencies occupy most of its towers.
The stock ranges from high-rises such as the U.S. Bancorp Tower (Big Pink), Wells Fargo Center and the Power + Light Building to older mid-rise buildings on Portland's small 200-foot blocks. Towers run on reserved docks and freight elevators with certificate of insurance requirements, while older buildings often have small shared docks or curb-only loading on one-way streets.

Planning a Portland CBD move-out
What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.
- Book a PBOT Temporary Street Use parking reservation for the truck, and allow five to seven business days from application to permit start.
- Check PBOT's holiday moratorium, which restricts street use on certain streets in major retail districts from November 19 through January 5, before scheduling winter removals downtown.
- Keep trucks off the Fifth and Sixth Avenue transit mall lanes and clear of MAX tracks when staging near a building entrance.
- Reserve dock time and the freight elevator with tower management, since many downtown buildings require after-hours removals and a certificate of insurance on file.
- Send computers, monitors and TVs to an Oregon E-Cycles recycler, since Oregon has banned their disposal in the garbage and at landfills since January 2010.
