Lancaster Logistics provided services to specify, competitively price, procure and manage the delivery and installation of furniture, fixtures and equipment for our new mid-high school. At the same time, the district began renovating two of its elementary schools and portions of the high school. This work created much movement within the district. We have been pleased and impressed with Lancaster Logistics’ knowledge and experience, their ultra-organized nature and their attention to detail. The result is a smooth work flow, efficient moving, and cost savings in mistake prevention. Their experience and organized plans reduce surprises and provide solutions quickly when they inevitably do arise. Melanie and her staff listen expertly, communicate thoroughly and follow through promptly.

Within days of Melanie’s involvement, she had installed confidence in our management team that her company could take control of the relocation of our facility. Melanie proved to be a valuable and critical component of the construction transition team. Her attention to detail and dedication to project safety was evident by her professional demeanor and continued efforts throughout the move process. She displayed knowledge and skills in logistical coordination issues necessary to oversee move-in activities for this large construction project.
Melanie’s approach to organizing and planning our project was tailored perfectly to meet our needs. The transition to the new facility was seamless. Our move was successful in large part due to the efficient and organized planning and implementation services she provided.

Thank you for your outstanding work on the Hermiston school projects. Your expert management of the furniture installation and move coordination was a big reason these complex and fast-paced projects were so successful. Your calm and systematic approach during the planning phase created a very positive and collaborative attitude among the students, staff and construction team. My job as Construction Manager was made much less stressful because I always knew the tasks within your scope of work were under control.

The expertise and experience that Melanie brought to our team made us successful. Her attention to detail was amazing and we had very little need for changes and supplemental work. We have opened the four new buildings without a hitch. I particularly appreciated her professional approach and her understanding of how large organizations operate. Her work with staff was exceptional and I welcome additional opportunities to work with Lancaster Logistics.

Every detail of our move projects were flawlessly handled all within the often unpredictable timeline of construction work. With 335,000 sf of new construction and 47,000 sf of remodel, we found your services to be invaluable to the success of our projects. This was an enormous undertaking and you provided tremendous support. We would recommend your services to anyone seeking professional, efficient and courteous service.

When I first met with Melanie Russell of Lancaster Logistics, it was immediately clear that she wanted to work with us, not direct us. Our concerns were addressed and efficient solutions presented. Even though the move process is stressful, I can say I had fun because Melanie was having fun.

When faced with moving our archives from one university to another in a critically short timeframe, we called Melanie. She has a magical way of soothing ruffled feathers and gathering support from everyone involved in the process.
